Cleveland History Center
I joined the staff of The Cleveland History Center in July 2024 as an educator to teach field trips and write educational programs
In between teaching, I connected with staff members and created opportunities that would allow me to merge my love of history and my love of design
Social Media
In my role coordinating the social media for the Crawford Museum, our goal has been to create more engagement with visitors both online and in person. I create content to showcase behind-the-scenes content, promote current exhibitions, and share automotive history. I also create print and digital material to support museum events and the Cleveland History Center's main social media as well.

Ohio History Day
For the past two years, I have been involved with creating the lead graphic for Region 3 Ohio History Day, hosted by the Cleveland History Center. I have created original illustrations based on the year’s theme, which are featured on t-shirts, pins, stickers, and marketing/print materials.

1916 Owen Magnetic Diagram
I had the opportunity in 2024-2025 to reimagine a diagram for a rare car for the Cleveland History Center’s collection. The 1916 Owen Magnetic was created as an early hybrid car using only magnetism to transmit power from the engine to the wheels.
The Transportation Curator wanted to put this car on display but the only diagram that existed was an overly simplified drawing from the 1960s. I spent months studying manuals and marketing materials to understand how the car functioned in order to create a new diagram that would be visually appealing and easily understood by the average visitor.
