Carson House Museum Website
A custom WordPress website for a historic house museum in the region. I contributed significantly to the theme development, including the staff directory, events system, menu behavior, and accessibility improvements.

- Desktop and mobile footer layout (CH-9)
- Header, navigation, and submenu behavior (CH-13, CH-28)
- Social media focus indicators and accessibility (CH-11)
- Staff and board directory with last-name sorting (CH-18)

- Event button visibility and date logic (CH-30)
- Recaptcha integration (CH-40)
- Font, styling, and responsive layout work (CH-12, CH-14)
This was one of my more substantial contributions. I helped shape many of the core features the client uses daily.
