Graphic Design Freelance/Volunteer Work, 2014-2018
- Throughout high school I designed posters and flyers for various local events and clubs, for both paid and volunteer work. This required attention to detail, ability to meet deadlines, and lots of communication with groups and individuals organizing the events.
- This graphic design work taught me how to communicate effectively about ideas for a project's design, manage my own time, reach out to find new connections and opportunities, and helped me to refine my skills with Photoshop.

Volunteer/Student Intern- Sports Filming with Whidbey Telecom at South Whidbey High School, 2014 - 2015
- I worked with experienced Film/TV producers and directors and a small group of students to film sporting events at my high school, including home games for football and basketball. We also met outside of filming events to learn some of the basics of editing this footage.
- I learned new skills in a short period of time, including knowledge of the principles of filming, proficiency with highly technical cameras, and demonstrated the ability to respond to my supervisor's requests and suggestions.
- This opportunity taught me a lot about how to learn on the job, and communicate effectively with supervisors.
