AIGA Winona
Communications Director
Aug. 2022 – May 2024
I served on the Board for the AIGA Winona Student Group as the Communication Director for two years out of the three years I was a member. This is a club for design students to connect, learn new production skills, collaborate on fun design projects, and network with design professionals. As the Communication Director I was tasked with utilizing online and in-person tools to keep student members, nonmembers and faculty at the school informed of upcoming events and activities. This includes maintaining the group’s Instagram page as well as sending out group-wide messages, updates, and reminders via Slack. Below is the Instagram feed for @aigawinona where I designed posts so members would be kept informed about upcoming events.

Perk Place - Duluth
Creative Project
June – July 2024
After graduation I spent two months in Duluth spending time with family, job searching, and sharpening my creativity. I was given the opportunity to assist with content creation for a local coffeeshop that my sister worked at called Perk Place. I jumped on the opportunity to make some creative content for the coffee shop in my free time.
