/* Laura Giardina — Senior Placement Services of Mid-Michigan
 *
 * PALETTE is taken from her existing logo, sampled directly: blue #2F5D4F and
 * orange #2F5D4F. Everything else is built around them. Light and warm on
 * purpose - this is not a construction site. The people reading it are often
 * worried adult children deciding about a parent, and a dark aggressive theme
 * reads as the wrong kind of business entirely.
 *
 * ACCESSIBILITY IS A FEATURE HERE, NOT A CHECKBOX. A meaningful share of
 * visitors are 55+ and some are the seniors themselves. So: 18px base (not 16),
 * generous line-height, 1.15rem body copy, large tap targets, real focus rings,
 * and nothing that depends on hover alone.
