Kallie Reed

A skilled editor can turn even the dullest of documents into a work of art. Or, at the very least, into a usable document that is easy on the eyes. This edit focused on reshaping and organizing the Utah Alcohol, Tobacco, and Drug Laws information sheet into a functional document that is easy to navigate and pleasant to look at. As everyone knows, government texts aren't exactly known for their readability or riveting stories. But with a little bit of creativity and an eye for detail, I redesigned the document to maximize organization and encourage readers' retention of the information.
​
All information from the original text was retained; however, it was reorganized utilizing tables, bulleted lists, callouts, headings, and short paragraphs to ensure reader comprehension and usability.
