Jan. 2019 - May 2020
Selecting and staging the perfect cover, getting on-site for authentic photos and captions, designing and directing one-of-a-kind spread layouts, and even sourcing stories were all part of my role as Art Director for the Swinging Bridge, the student magazine for Messiah University. Each issue represents a cross-team effort between the Design, A/V, and Editorial teams working closely together on multiple media forms to tell inspiring, informative stories.
