Supplemental Health Care – Connections That Fuel Miracles
Through Small Ax Creative, I was asked to create two animations as part of SHC's "Connections That Fuel Miracles" series, using Adobe After Effects. I was sent an example of the main artist's work so I could mimic their style, keeping the series consistent.
Other Experience
2022 - 2023
Art in Mind and Aim to Thrive
Volunteered with Art in Mind, and helped establish a new charity, "Aim to Thrive", encouraging young women and trans/genderqueer people to explore their mental health issues through creative outlets. I created a basic branding package for Aim to Thrive, which I then used as to create their website and social media accounts.
2019 - 2022
Student Ambassador
Worked to welcome prospective students; providing them with information regarding university life and my experience at University of Brighton. I participated in open days and Student Experience panels, often alongside other students and staff members, working as a team to create a welcoming, positive environment. I communicated with both guests and colleagues in an appropriate and friendly manner, and completed any necessary training and event preparation in a timely fashion.
2011 - present
Fundraising
I have been involved in fundraising for various charities and organisations over the past decade. I sold handmade bracelets and crocheted hats at my mother’s shop for the Royal Alexandra Children’s Hospital from 2011-2014, and in more recent years I have run bake sales and created Halloween displays to raise money for Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex and local fundraising campaigns.
