Results
For this work I was awarded 2015 Designer of the Year and First, Second, and Honorable Mention in Illustration by the Student Society for News Design and Best Design for Newspaper Spread by the College Media Association.
︎︎︎ I experimented with a variety of media to create visuals. For the heavy news of 43 students disappearing from the Ayotzinapa Rural Teachers’ College in Mexico, I designed and lasercut tissue paper to commemorate those missing.
︎︎︎ I also took initiative to research and write some content, including an article about the history of terminology media used to cover the ebola epidemic.
︎︎︎ My time at F News also fed my love for data visualization. I had the opportunity to create several infographics, including this cheeky diagram of Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art.
