During my final semester in high school, I interned at Red Antler, a New York-based branding agency focused on building the identities of mission-driven startups, from allbirds to Casper. It was amazing being around the experience of imagining and working with new brands, building and reshaping current brands and products, and observing the design side as well. As a design intern, I assisted with photoshoots and in systemizing a company-wide photo archive and designed branded merch, including tote bags, and social hiring posts. Additionally, I participated in strategy and design meetings with senior strategists and designers.
