One project I had lined up this summer was to take a look at redesigning this website. After several hours of comparing various templates and mock-ups, I finally settled on the one you see here. I hope you like it! While the content of the site has not changed, the overall look and usability have (I hope) improved. Two big improvements I was looking to make have been accomplished:

• The site looks better on mobile devices. The previous template looked ok on phones and tablets, but I was never completely satisfied with it. If you have the chance, please take a look around on your mobile devices and let me know what you think in the comments section. One other significant change is that the categories, search bar, blog links, and other functions are now located at the bottom of the page.
• The overall look is cleaner and more visually appealing. Yes, a very subjective appraisal, but I hope my readers will agree. The previous design template was starting to look dated, and I thought it was time for a change.
