Role
Creative Research Assistant
Summary
I am a Creative Research Assistant on the ORIGIN Project.
About
I am a creative research assistant working on ORIGIN, an NIHR funded collaborative research initiative that seeks to enhance mental health support for underrepresented young people aged 16 to 24 through online arts & culture. My work largely focuses on co-designing an online platform featuring hidden stories highlighting the unique experiences of underrepresented groups such as those with LGBTQ+, ethnic minority & neuro-diverse backgrounds.
My work employs a large range of design skills to creatively tell these stories in an impactful way through proficiency in the Adobe Creative Suite & includes animation, digital & physical illustrations, layout design, podcast production, videography & visual storytelling.
My practice is heavily influenced by her background in Journalism Studies, particularly in areas of research & creative writing. My experience as Marketing Director & Deputy Editor at Forge Press has enabled her to take on further PR roles at Lab4Living as well.
