Over the past three months, I had the opportunity to design a variety of digital content for the Aspen Policy Academy, an organization dedicated to equipping policymakers with research-based training and resources to address pressing public policy challenges.
Design Approach
Professional & Engaging Visuals: Ensured that all designs aligned with the Academy’s mission by maintaining a polished, informative, and accessible aesthetic.
Clear Communication: Transformed complex policy topics into visually appealing content that enhanced understanding and engagement.
Consistent Branding: Maintained a cohesive look across various platforms to strengthen the Academy’s online presence.
Social Media Graphics
This post spotlights one of its incredible alumni, Emma. This simple yet powerful design highlights what she learned during her time with the academy and how it shaped her journey toward making an impact in policy.
I created a motion graphic story for the Aspen’s Instagram. I kept the design simple, allowing the focus to remain on the academy’s impact and core mission.
This was my first design for the Aspen Policy Academy—an Instagram post highlighting the impact of the Nonprofit Policy Training they provide.
Executive Summary
I designed an Executive Summary for a project in Utah that is implementing an AI evaluation framework. I loved the challenge of creating a design that clearly communicates the problem and solution, making it easy for viewers to understand the project's impact.
Presentation Graphics
A major part of my internship has been creating graphics for and editing webinar presentations. While I’ve been asked to simplify my designs to align with the academy’s needs, this challenge has helped me grow as a graphic designer.
Case Study
I had the opportunity to create a case study highlighting the impact the Aspen Policy Academy has had on 15 nonprofit organizations.
