University of California

Making science resonate—visually and digitally.

Overview

This role was all about turning complex scientific and clinical topics into clear, engaging, and fun content—without losing the rigor. At UC San Diego, I led creative marketing and communications for a major research institute focused on public health, aging, and inclusion. I collaborated with leading faculty, clinicians, and campus leadership to ensure our messaging was accessible, aligned, and visually impactful.

I managed web design and content strategy across a wide range of programs, reaching everyone from patients and caregivers to researchers and students.

I oversaw the transition to a new CMS, designed and improved clinical and research tools, and developed web-based UX/UI products like provider training platforms, therapy tools, and research applications. My creative direction shaped a highly successful UC TV video series, as well as popular newsletters and print/digital campaigns. I branded international events and conferences.

Working alongside some of the most respected voices in research (including UX) and medicine—people shaping the future of their fields—was both inspiring and humbling. I also had the chance to mentor many students and trainees, and learned just as much from them in the process.
