Working with student organization, CMU Against ICE, 4-5 student collaborators and I worked to design, research, and write a ‘Dis-Orientation Guide’. I served as a project manager, researcher, writer, and designer.

This 108-page publication is meant to serve as an alternative to the highly sanitized orientation guide provided by university administration; rather, it provides student resources, historical and contextual information on Pittsburgh, and a synopsis on university problems written and posed from the student perspective. 2020 was the first that such a guide has been written for CMU, and as such it inevitably contains some errors or potential improvement. Nonetheless, as a group we were proud of our achievement!

Below is a selection of pages I personally designed.
