Senior project Write up
Over the course of nine months I have been working on my senior project that focuses on analyzing the effects of colorism in the Mexican immigrant community in Yakima, Washington. In my Final Write Up I provide an overview of my project (abstract), process for conducting my methodology, my findings with recommendations, and a literature review. My research has provided me with opportunities beyond just research and throughout my website I highlight those moments. My hope is to attend grad school to either continue developing some of my recommendations or find more ways to conduct community-based research.

A class that became important for my senior project was the Digital Design Practicum course. This class taught me the importance of how to visually communicate information through design. To the right I included an assignment I worked on for the course that demonstrates how I used icons and simple forms of design to capture the significance of my senior project.
