NYC Votes
During the weekdays, I’m the Multimedia Content Creator at NYC Votes. Whether I'm producing, writing, editing, casting, jumping in front of the camera, illustrating, or dancing on a float, I'm on a mission to make voting fun and accessible for everyone in our city.
t or f: ppl love trivia
True! I created a series of videos called Get Em’ to the Polls focusing on communities with low voter turnout. The goal is to educate our audience about their rights and available accessibility tools for voting in the 2024 Presidential election.

CAN I GET A YeRrR?
What’s the best spot in the Bronx? We teamed up with Bronx Native to get the borough with the lowest voter turnout to get amped. Amaurys Grullon of Bronx Native designed merch featuring some of my illustrations, which we distributed to Bronxites who registered to vote or pledged their commitment to voting. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) reposted our video with a classic “YERRRRRRRRR!”

THIS IS THE SKIN OF A VOTER, BELLA
We’re bridging the gap between Gen Z and Millennials, one Twilight parody at a time. We collaborated with one of our Youth Ambassadors Janaiba, to bring awareness to 16 and 17 year old New Yorkers that they can pre-register to vote. Too bad Edward Cullen will never be able to vote.

We went viral!
I used Legos to visually explain the complicated process of counting Ranked Choice Votes. With 408K views on IG, 190.9K on X, and 186.6K on TikTok, this one went bigger than usual extending outside our normal NYC audience as more and more states are considering adopting Ranked Choice Voting. We got a lot of comments saying it’s the most helpful explanation of Ranked Choice Voting they'd ever seen. And honorable mention, Mark Cuban retweeted it.

IT’S EARLY VOTING
You’re very busy. You’re very cool. Don’t let it sabotage your vote! I had so much fun running around town parodying the iconic Sabotage Beastie Boys music video with my talented coworker Natalia. We wanted to get the people of New York HYPED for the 2023 local primary election, which typically has low voter turnout.

pizza pie charts
Elections are confusing, pizza is not! What better way to illustrate the impact of our votes than to use NYC’s primary food group? I designed these graphics to make the midterms extra digestible, and ooh baby, these pie charts were a hit. Chelsea Clinton reposted them on X, and @welcome.to.chinatown fully recreated them with illustrations of Chinese food, by @jennyjomeslice!

Language access
To promote and celebrate our website’s launch into 13 languages, I created this video by casting 13 enthusiastic New Yorkers to say “I’m a New York City Voter” in their native languages.
