COMMUNITY OUTREACH & CREATIVE MANAGER

Building community through design. As Community Outreach and Creative Manager at Maker Learning Network, I led initiatives that made student learning visible through exhibitions, showcases, and programs that brought families and educators together across a network of project-based charter schools. I developed creative direction for school-wide programs through visual identity, narrative frameworks, and multi-channel campaigns spanning digital, print, and event branding. This work taught me to iterate constantly between listening and making, using empathy to understand what stakeholders needed and systems thinking to design solutions that scaled. It's where I first learned that good design isn't about volume, it's about meeting people exactly where they are.

VISUAL DESIGN PRODUCER

From concept to execution, I shaped the visual direction for Honor featuring Grace and Lil Yachty, Coolin' By My Side featuring Justine Skye, and Blame It On The Freak—collaborating with DJ Cassidy and established artists to bring each project to life. I developed treatments, built mood boards, scouted locations, and directed styling, creating cohesive design frameworks that unified narrative, environment, and wardrobe into singular, immersive experiences.
