Mittler Senior Technology helps older adults build confidence with computers, smartphones, and the digital tools they use every day. Run entirely by high school and college students, it has reached 3,500+ seniors across more than 10 countries.

We rebuilt their website with a focus on environmental sustainability and accessibility. Even though the previous site was already on green hosting, large images, unnecessary code, and heavy page files meant it was using far more energy and water than needed. Stripping that back moved the site from an F carbon rating to a B, with energy use, carbon emissions, and water consumption per visit each falling by roughly 98%.

> Gabriel transformed our website into a cleaner, more modern, and more accessible platform. His work significantly improved the user experience, especially for seniors, while also bringing a valuable sustainability perspective to our digital strategy. Jordan Mittler, Director & Founder
