WEBSITE REDESIGN
As the Online Graphics Editor, I worked with the creative director to initiate and implement a full redesign of the DP website. This new website is easier to navigate, more functional, and visually cleaner.
GRAPHICS PROJECT: FINANCIAL AID AT PENN
With data provided by Penn Student Registration & Financial Services (SRFS) and other resources, The Daily Pennsylvanian Online Graphics Department took a deeper look into financial aid at Penn. These comparisons, infographics and interactive maps provide a transparent look at how Penn’s policies compare with those of other Ivy League schools, how aid packages differ for students from across the country and around the world and how work study functions, to name a few.
GRAPHICS PROJECT: COURSES AT PENN
Using data from Penn Course Review, a platform with class and professor reviews (2009-2015), The Daily Pennsylvanian Online Graphics Department created static graphics for this in-depth online project. These graphics, along with the stories, provide an evaluation of course difficulty, instructor quality, and departments.
