“I spent the summer interning in Lisbon. I had a graphic design internship at Pearl Jars, which is a sustainable jar company. I had to edit books for publishing, create logos, 3D model, and take photos. I had to problem-solve on the fly and consider how my designs would resonate with a broader, more diverse audience.”
“I had the pleasure of interning at Zepo, a global AI cybersecurity company trying to minimize risk, and one of 17 startups selected by Google for Startups. I was working with an online supervisor doing graphic design work, and would create storyboards to prep for illustrations to create all of their short video animations.”
