A message from Athena Eliza: Thank you for taking the time to read about me and travel around my website. The thought process behind this website is that I wanted to showcase my experiences, achievements, up-to-date content, and passion for art. As a young adult, I never thought that I would create a website for myself right after college, but in truth, I really enjoyed piecing this together. Have a great time clicking buttons!
Presentations
I'd like to share this presentation that reflects the development of my aesthetic sensibility and writing style from high school through my freshman year of college. I created it using Canva to showcase my experience in illustration, photography, advertising, video production, social media, documentation, websites, and more. The presentation was part of a project assigned to introduce the style I could bring to my first campus job.
This presentation summarizes my experience as a Junior Giants Ambassador during the Summer 2022 season (in-person) and Summer 2021 season (remote). I created the presentation using Canva, focusing heavily on detailing my tasks and responsibilities as an ambassador. It highlights my achievements, areas of improvement, collaborations, resources, goals, and more. The presentation concludes with a "big picture" section, offering my broader insights and feedback on the Junior Giants Program.
As you explore this presentation, consider it a proposal. It is a social media proposal created in collaboration with my co-workers to persuade our supervisors of the benefits of using Instagram to raise awareness about the department's information and engage the campus community. The presentation, designed on Canva, took about a week and a half to prepare, including research on how Instagram is a popular platform and its long-term benefits.
Viewing this presentation provides a breakdown of my ideas and performance as the ASUCM Head Election Commissioner for two terms in the spring. Created on Canva, it outlines the duties and responsibilities of the position. As Head Election Commissioner, I oversee the UC Merced ASUCM elections and lead a commission. I am excited to share the experience of being a student leader with you.
