The Project
Working under the L&S Biological Sciences Department at the Innovative Genomics Institute, I created digital illustrations that showcase a series of achieving women in STEM, rendered through classical portrait paintings. With the overarching goal of creating digestible concepts for wider audiences, future projects include collaborations with fellow IGI graduates summarizing their "day-in-the-life" comic strips. Additionally, the gallery was featured by the New Hampshire Public Radio (here) and Sally Ride Science @UC San Diego (here). Learn more about the full gallery & insight of each scientist here.
