I designed the 2023 Yearbook for the Newcomer Youth Summer Academy (NYSA). This included the cover, layout, and illustrations for the designated theme of “Light”.
I collaborated with 16 lead staff through each step of the design process from initial sketches and contact sheets to several revised drafts, to a final product. I utilized the Adobe Creative Suite to deliver something that fully embodied the client’s overall mission.
As part of my work, I also developed several organizational methods to ensure that the final product was as accurate and inclusive as possible. I did this by solidifying all records such as attendance, photo and name release waivers, and preferred names and pronouns, in one Excel spreadsheet.
I’m proud to say that the yearbook gave campers a special way to commemorate their summer.
