Design
Featured here is one of my all time favorite page designs I was apart of. Inspired by my love of scrap booing, I got creative with cutouts highlighting all the winter sports, not just the popular basketball pictures. I pulled pictures from a spread of our photographers, highlighting their best works. This page will be published in our upcoming winter/spring issue of the Minnehaha Academy Talon.
Yearbook
In my time with the Minnehaha journalism department, not only have I worked on the newspaper, but I have also helped with the yearbook.
Here are some pages I designed from our 2023-24 yearbook.

Since our staff is so small, everyone contributes to page design and layout. Here are some of my favorite pages I’ve helped design.
