Newsroom Design Internship at The Washington Post


Recently, I wrapped up a newsroom design internship at The Washington Post. Having become an active member of the award-winning design team, I worked across a wide array of mediums to meet the demands of the newsroom.

I designed posts for The Washington Post's Instagram accounts, laid out print newspaper pages, and coded interactive web pages for stories. I created quick-turn illustrations and photo collages to accompany stories and art directed freelance illustrators, providing them with feedback and critique to ensure high-quality visuals.





Design, layout, and programming using HTML/CSS, JavaScript, and React for enhanced storytelling. Using visuals from The Washington Post's visit to the largest optical fiber facility in the US, the article explains how fiber optic cables are made.  Instagram carousel design for the social media version of the piece (below).
