Visual storytelling has the transformative power to simplify communication, elevate, experiences, and engage and inspire people. I aim to harness that power on behalf of historically underrepresented voices and all those whose stories need to be told.

My work includes building campaigns for my community, creating visual advertising for a variety of audiences, and telling the stories of people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. I experiment with video and digital design and my knowledge includes
online marketing and inclusivity in entertainment media.
My Experience Timeline...
2016
My production interests emerged in 2016. I acted and created video advertisements for different groups and clubs for my high school. I experimented with production and editing with short films. I learned Adobe Premiere, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe After Effects.
2019
My focus in 2019 was writing journalistic pieces and developing my interview skills. I hosted a light-hearted interview featuring the CSU swim and dive head coach for the girls' swim and dive team and a star swimmer.
2020
In 2020, my work began to focus on the needs of others. I crafted radio scripts and created posters for digital platforms. I created a website to advocate for the black community and the differential outcomes they experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
2022
My projects in 2022 elevated local businesses and non-profits. I secured an internship that advanced inclusion in Hollywood while concurrently sharpening my research and social media skills.
