STEAMpunks Boston

Jacqueline Gonzalez and I cofounded STEAMpunks Boston (STEM + the Arts thru Activism), a community arts group that brings creative professionals and local youth together in a live studio workplace to teach technology skills in web design, advertising, journalism, and digital arts. Jackie and I work with J. Patrick Brown and Beryl Lipton of Muckrock MuckRock, an open news tool powered by state and federal Freedom of Information laws to organize each quarterly “BUILD session,” which allows students to tackle real problems in the community by working one-on-one with designers, developers, and community advocates.

The website was a one-pager announcing the BUILD session, designed by a Guatemala-based visual designer Maria de la Riva.

From My Portfolio

View All Work

Amplify Partners

Qualified Digital partnered with me to build Amplify Partners’ new website, which Qualified designed. Amplify was looking to take advantage of a modern redesign and all that WordPress Gutenberg has to offer.

Financial & Legal

Comeback America Initiative

As a political action brochure, the microsite functioned as a hub of information about the nation’s finances, linking out to the Comeback America Initiative’s “Fiscal IQ” survey.

Education

Disquiet International

My approach in the redesign was to put the emphasis on the program’s very visual experience, as well as make it easier for the program organizers to collect applications.
