While serving as the Marketing Intern at World Relief Chicago, I used Canva to create this refugee arrival graphic.

The graphic continued to serve the organization after my internship ended and became a vital part of WRC’s social media strategy.

While completing my MA coursework at the University of Cape Town, I took a Media, Development, and Globalisation course. Our final project involved creating a COVID-19 educational health campaign targeting a vulnerable population group in South Africa. I chose to target students living on-campus at the University of Cape Town since they live in close quarters and can’t properly social distance. I developed a campaign with numerous tactics (photobooth, WhatsApp alerts, masks, and posters) and measures to evaluate the success of the campaign. I presented the campaign to my class, and my professor recommended that I submit the campaign to the university’s marketing department to implement it on-campus once the students returned to school. You can see the campaign proposal presentation here.
