LinkedIn & Twitter Posts
I enjoy designing social media graphics that remain true to the brand of the organization I'm designing for, while incorporating elements that make the designs visually appealing, attention-grabbing, and easy to understand.
I've designed several social media graphics for university student organizations, nonprofits, and work. These examples capture the essence of the brand while adding a celebratory spirit and playful touch.

Social Media Content Creation & Management
As a social media content creator and manager, I've successfully collaborated with 100+ different businesses. I do photography, photo editing, video creation, and editing, to craft visually appealing and engaging content for the social media accounts of various restaurants as well as STEP (Stanford Teacher Education Program). I excel in writing compelling captions that resonate with the audience and I manage posting schedules to grow and maintain thriving social media accounts. Through my creative endeavors, I have successfully contributed to enhancing the online presence and visibility of various restaurants, driving increased engagement and attracting new followers and business.
