My first dive into the professional world was with Martin Aquatic Design & Engineering as their Summer 2022 Communication Intern. Exploring the themed entertainment market, I picked up valuable insight on market research and coordinating with vendors, while also utilizing principles of graphic design.
In my time at Martin Aquatic, I was tasked with developing mockup material for multiple purposes. To help announce the firm's receipt of an industry-prominent award, I photographed another award MA received and utilized Photoshop to remove the original text, replacing it with the relevant information.

I also developed creative collateral for use on the firm's strongest social media channel, LinkedIn. Initially, I created a social media calendar to help put the firm on a consistent posting schedule. Then, I moved into ideating content for the account, building on the calendar. Some of the templates I created continue to see use by Martin Aquatic even after I've left the firm.
