By participating and building my theoretical framework in Loyola University’s interdisciplinary Digital Humanities graduate program, I hope to offer a more empathetic, specific, and holistic approach to my management and mentorship of learning and development teams.
From Fall 2019-Spring 2020, I studied Digital Humanities through in Loyola University’s graduate program, which offers training in the practice and critical study of the intersections between the humanities and computational sciences.
Below are samples of work from my studies.
Interactive Map of Chicago Queer Performance Spaces
Along with three other graduate students in Loyola University’s Digital Humanities and Public History masters programs, I built an interactive map highlighting Chicago locations that consider themselves LGBTQ+ entertainment spaces, or spaces that put on LGBTQ+ programming regularly.
Prototype of System for K-12 Educators and Learners
This project proposal sought to provide an online website that would function as a customizable resource for facilitators, education organizations/institutions, and their students to have a place that stores different free sources across the internet to improve e-learning programs.
Accessibility & Usability Presentation
For my class, I led a presentation on Accessibility from a Digital Humanities lense. I specifically chose to focus on disability studies, and in particular, how web usability testing can truly make a difference in assistive technology when implemented with intention and attention.
