Backyard Basecamp is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization located in Baltimore. They focus on inspiring Black, Indigenous, and all People of Color (BIPOC) across Baltimore City to find nature where they are and empowering them to explore further. I am their graphic design intern, but they have allowed me to incorporate art into my internship, as well as volunteer and lead volunteer days too!
Below are highlights of my projects, and images of the other work I have done. My internship was from January - May 2021.

I loved my internship with BYBC. They allowed me lots of creative freedom and treated me like a "real adult" and designer. I had a great experience being out in nature and learning more about Baltimore. It really showed me that I could realistically being design into the other areas of my life, and that has always been a goal of mine. I continue to work with BYBC on commissioned and volunteer efforts. 7/2/21

Kula DesignAfter my internship ended, I was commissioned to design this Kula Cloth (a pee cloth for outdoor adventures!) on behalf of Backyard Basecamp. I had creative freedom and decided to use elements I had already designed for the company. Learn more about Kula Cloths here!
