A collection of multimedia storytelling projects created through my TRiO internship and freelance work with the Empowerment Campaign. This section showcases my coverage of student success stories, promotional photography, video content, and social media strategy that strengthened community engagement and highlighted underrepresented voices. Each project includes original imagery, interviews, and digital media assets created by me.

During my internship with FAU’s TRiO Student Support Services, I developed a complete media package designed to amplify student voices and strengthen TRiO’s visibility across campus. What started as a photography assignment expanded into a fully realized media coverage campaign, including interviews, videos, graphics, and social media deliverables.
