DonorsChoose.org. PSA’s—Print & Digital. 20-25 pieces. Various publications. Provided image and messaging to align with publication theme when applicable. No stock photography used—images are provided by teachers as part of feedback loop, showing resources/experiences provided by donors on site. I curated/selected compelling shots and made subtle enhancements in Photoshop.

 
 
 

Hired as graphic designer, I generated a lot of ad concepts for Sutter Health Plus—social posts, emails, site graphics, print.

I leveraged inclusive words like “Together” and “Stories” and “Partners” to establish a tone of “we’re all in this together” and flooded site with great photos that helped reinforce the narrative and express hope.

 

Moving Color and subsidiary Moody Paint copy writing — site, pitch deck, print collateral, social posts, event graphics.
