National Organization for Women:
Since January 2021, I have been a Digital Media Intern at the National Organization for Women. This internship combined my passions for graphic design and feminist education. As someone who primarily uses Photoshop to create graphics, this internship taught me about the usefulness of Canva. I created various graphics for both the Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter accounts, but I have linked some of my favorite projects down below.

I got to research any WGSS related field, and I chose to look at how digital tools can be used to uplift the body images of Asian American women. I create almost 20 unique graphics and a 9-slide infographic for Instagram.
Gloria Miller for Westford School Committee:
At the beginning of 2017, I designed the main graphic for a School Committee candidate in my hometown of Westford, Massachusetts. These logos were used on the candidate’s campaign website and Facebook page and on lawn signs. In 2020, I was asked to design more graphics for her re-election campaign.
While working for Gloria Miller, I had my first experience creating campaign graphics independently. I learned to create cohesive graphics with color schemes in RGB and CYMK. Being able to construct a campaign’s branding on my own allowed me to
