UIC Arab American Cultural Center , Chicago, IL August 2020 to May 2022
Creative Coordinator/Graphic Designer
Reason for Leaving: I was a student employee and no longer eligible to work for the center after graduation
- I reported to the Director of the Center for this paid, 2 year graphic design position. I was responsible for providing creative leadership, design direction and designer identity for the center.
- I created 30+ flyers, infographics and posters for events and campaigns.
- In addition to design work, I planned, facilitated and created content for 20 events while providing feedback to my supervisor for continuous improvement of educational and cultural activities.
- This was 1 of my 2 jobs while I was a fulltime student
- Impact Made:
- Myself, along with my 6 other co workers accomplished the demands of our MENA Campaign (read below)
- I was able to create connections with students which resulted in more traction and involvement for the center
- Even though I am no longer employed here, my previous director still reaches out to me for graphic design needs
