Newsroom graphic designer who treats visuals as part of the public record. When alerts hit, I triage, design, and ship fast to turn chaos into publish-ready coverage for live hits and social. Amid conflict coverage and misinformation spikes, I protect accuracy, sourcing, and dignity while preserving brand voice. I deliver platform-ready layouts (9:16, 1:1, 16:9) with captions/alt text, and package trending topics into clean explainers that help audiences understand what matters.
