  🎥 YouTube: @theroxburylatinschool 🦊 Facebook: @roxburylatin 📷 Instagram: @roxburylatin 🐥 Twitter: @roxburylatin I work closely with the Director of External Relations on many projects to support students, faculty, and parents. Key efforts include designing The Newsletter (RL's quarterly magazine), the school's annual report, and admission materials (course catalogue, viewbook, fact sheets, and open house ads). In addition to publishing projects, I produce videos for the school's website and social media accounts — to recap events, promote upcoming events, and engage constituents during capital campaigns or the school's annual giving day. During the Covid-19 pandemic, I shot all halls, addresses, and seminars for virtual attendance, and I also shot the school's 91-stop, 12-building 360º virtual tour. Show less
