A last-minute weekend partnership required an email flyer that we could use within an email to advertise a discount for Astros fans. Using graphics from the Creative Services Department, I created this flyer using Photoshop.
*Graphics and images were created by the Creative Services Department at HMNS.
The copy I would write would be used for both printed and digital uses. I would submit my copy for review to the Director of Membership. After approval, creative requests would be created and turned into the Creative Services Department. The flyer below was created using some of my drafted copy.
*Graphics and images were created by the Creatives Department at HMNS.
I led a few Outreach events within the Membership Department and was instructed to recreate/update an older flyer. A discount was offered for these events specifically. I created the flyer below from scratch and updated the information using graphics from the museum’s database.
*Graphics and images were created/taken by the Creative Services and Marketing Department at HMNS.
This chart was created in Photoshop to use within email campaigns that I created in MailChimp.Updates were made depending on the discount applied.
The museum switched systems and as a placeholder, for the beginning of the year, I created this flyer that was then mailed to members to inform them of the change.
A collection of blog posts I created for HMNS’ blog, BEYOND BONES.
I created this card for gift memberships that did not contain the recipient’s information. They were then given this card and could activate their membership and give accurate information for their household.
Mind-Speaks is a project that my sisters and I began to celebrate our respected interests in design, baking, and sewing. It has since branched off and is now an online stationery shop. We organized this fun family event for the beloved anime character Sailor Moon.

Can you guess these animal names?
Located in the Frensley-Graham Hall of African Wildlife.
1. They call me “King of the Jungle.” I’m a big cat who enjoys long naps, and I love to be surrounded by my family with pride.
2. My huge ears help cool me down, and my tusks help protect me from predators. If you need an extra hand, my nose is ready for action.
3. I’m part of the ape family, the largest, as a matter of fact. Knuckling around with great strength, my long arms and handy feet make living in trees a simple breeze.
4. I might look like a horse, but you’ll know me by my stripes. My black and white coloring, believe it or not, keeps me hidden and harder to spot.
5. I’m covered in scales from head to tail, and I shed my skin several times a year. I smell with my tongue as I search for prey. Poisonous or venomous, either way, retreat if we meet.
6. I am large, round, and grey and spend most of my time underwater. I eat mostly grass, but my jaws are quite powerful.
Located in the Farish Hall of Texas Wildlife
1. The fur on my face resembles a mask; I’m a tiny bandit waiting for the night. You might find me hiding in your trashcans, hunting for yummy leftovers.
2. I sleep during the day and come out at night. You may hear me call with a hoot, but it sounds like a WHO.
3. I resemble a roly-poly bug covered in a bony shell. I can curl into a ball sometimes to hide away from danger.
4. I may be stinking cute, black, and white with stripes. I’m usually rather shy, but if I’m feeling frightened, I’ll hit you with a smell, and it can last for months.
5. I’m a reptile who spends most of my time in the water—a long tail, ready for swimming, and a powerful jaw filled with 80 teeth perfect for biting. Avoid me at all cost; I’m not for petting.
6. I stop in my tracks, stunned when scared. When the moment is right, my hooves have me leaping away in fear.
*This was a draft for a scavenger hunt that I created for a children’s event. It did not end up being used for any event at HMNS.
