gRAIN OF SALT
grain of salt was a trendy culture magazine focused on amplifying the creative work of marginalized identities. I joined gos as part of their residency program, as a resident I curated graphics for socials and editorial pieces for the zine’s website on a bi-weekly publication cycle. In the wake of the program I was onboarded as a designer on the magazine’s graphic design team. grain of salt’s team of diverse creatives generated digital and printed zines as well as graphics for social media and the grain of salt website.

Glitch is an exploration of our movement from the physical world to an ever-growing digital universe. through this curated collection of art and writing, we aim to explore the digital spaces we gravitate to, how we express emotions and behaviors online, the ways we construct our personas, and how virtual community impacts our human connections
Index of the Internet is a collaborative effort from the grain of salt mag team and our fall 2023 residents to put together a silly, creative guide to the internet. inside, you'll find a guide for soft launches vs hard launches, a recap of the best twitter celebrity fights, a timeline about how 9/11 led to ellen's downfall (it's true!), and so much more.
