Digital Storytelling
I am a member of an extraordinary team at Northwestern University, dedicated to crafting and curating multimedia content that embodies Northwestern's brand for targeted audiences. The following are noteworthy examples of my contributions—although I may not have been directly involved in every aspect of the multimedia creation process for the stories below, I have played a significant role in shaping multimedia features, driving social media campaigns, and crafting compelling narratives.
Stretching the Imagination
Pioneering professor John Rogers founded a new field of bioelectronics to improve human health. I took the style and assests from the print magazine and created graphics for the videos, created an Instagram story, and animated and edited a digital infograph that highlights some of the inventions that John Rogers has created.

The Rhythm of Sleep
I created an Instagram Reels on “Improving Sleep,” to promote this story. I used the animated the illustrations from Yifan Wu. View the digital story here.
Your Cleaning Habits Could Make You Sick
Scientist warn of disinfectant overuse. The COVID-19 pandemic boosted the unnecessary use of these products, many of which are linked to health problems, antimicrobial resistance and environmental harm. This story was a Discovery brief ran in Northwestern Magazine. A video was created for the digital site and with limited graphic assets, I was asked to create an animated section for the video. For this video, I worked with a hand animation style, and used cell-animation for the bottle flipping to the back of the ingredients.
