ABOUTIn the summer of 2026, I worked as a Graphic Design Intern at Cooper Hewitt. Over the course of the internship, I designed visual identity systems for a 50th-anniversary campaign, a summer programming series, and a permanent exhibition proposal of student work. In addition, the four interns collaborated to curate and test these projects for display through a series of family programs.

50 Year Anniversary Campaign

Designed a campaign celebrating the 50th anniversary of Cooper Hewitt’s collection in Andrew Carnegie’s historic mansion. Developed a visual identity across Instagram posts, custom illustrations, and an animation highlighting key archival objects and the mansion’s architectural history.

How We Make

Developed branding and templates for How We Make, a workshop series where multidisciplinary designers lead public sessions at the museum. The visual language gave new life to an archived concept initially pitched for the 50th-anniversary identity [shown above].

Designing Dreams

This exhibition proposal was a collaborative project among the Curatorial, Education, and Accessibility interns and me at Cooper Hewitt. We proposed creating a space to display the exceptional work made in student and family programs, as well as work by winners of the National High School Design Competition. The goal was to show that student work deserves to be taken seriously within museum spaces. For the identity, I wanted the look and feel to be playful and inviting without feeling childish.
