I worked on the design desk at The Daily Tar Heel, creating editorial graphics for news, lifestyle, opinion, and sports stories. Using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop, I produced visuals that supported reporting, clarified complex topics, and helped readers engage with the stories more quickly and effectively. You can see all my graphics and their accompanying stories here.
