You're looking at it. I designed and coded this portfolio site from scratch — HTML, CSS, and JavaScript throughout. The animated ASCII eyes on the home page track the cursor and blink, and the scramble text effect cycles through rotating descriptions. It's hosted on Netlify.

Merch Chair, Gamma Phi Beta.

As Merch Chair for my chapter, I manage the full merch program across multiple drops per semester. Historically, the merch process can be hard to navigate, so my first month as chairwoman I created a system I follow and can pass on to the next person. The process starts with a chapter-wide poll where I present hand-drawn designs, new product ideas, and vendor mockups to gauge interest. I use that data to build a semester timeline in collaboration with the VP of Personal Relations — mapping out design deadlines, order windows, and drop dates for every item we plan to release.

Once the timeline is set, I get into the design work. I start by researching what's trending, then sketch designs by hand before working with vendors to iterate until the final product is right. The yellow Michigan Stadium hoodie set pictured is one of my most recent drops — the design features a screenprinted illustration of the Big House on the back and embroidered Gamma Phi Beta lettering on the pants, developed through multiple rounds of feedback between me, the vendor, and the chapter. Other drops have included a pink tracksuit set for our Exec team, a navy and pink sweatset collection, and a custom "philo 2026" mockneck for our philanthropy event.

I've coordinated around 5-10 drops to date; not every order makes it to production, but every one goes through the full design and feedback process. If you'd like to see more designs, please reach out.

Album Search.

A web app built with React, Vite, and the Spotify API that lets you search for any artist and browse their full discography. The app authenticates with Spotify's API, fetches albums in real time, and displays them in a clean, browsable layout. It was a project I built to get more comfortable working with external APIs and component-based architecture in React.

Salps and the biological carbon pump.

For Oceanography, I designed a science infographic on salps; gelatinous zooplankton that filter feed continuously while swimming, earning them the nickname "ocean vacuum cleaners." Salps repackage surface carbon into dense fecal pellets that sink rapidly to the deep ocean, making them a critical and critically understudied component of the biological carbon pump.

I used a terminal/HUD aesthetic: green on dark, annotated organism diagrams, data callouts. Environmental threats like microplastics, ocean warming, and data scarcity are framed as system alerts.

If social media is supposed to connect us, why does it feel so isolating?

For SI 110 I produced a podcast episode looking at a question that kept coming up throughout the semester: if social media is designed to connect people, why does it often feel like it's doing the opposite? The episode pulls from research on platform design, attention economies, and the psychology of how we interact online.
