/* ==========================================================================
   ABOUT US PAGE — rebuilt from scratch.
   Banner: left-aligned dark band with a dotted texture, small dash+label
   eyebrow, a two-line heading (white statement / gold accent line), a
   short lead sentence, and a breadcrumb — modeled directly on the supplied
   reference layout.
   Content: plain, single-column, editorial paragraphs. No badges, no card
   grids, no icon rows, no chip lists — just readable text.
