Recognizing the need for intentional and culturally sensitive content, I crafted messaging that aligned with VERGE's commitment to supporting individuals from the global majority in the predominantly white art industry. I managed social media platforms (Instagram, LinkedIn), tracked engagement metrics, and curated content calendars to enhance online presence and community engagement. Additionally, I provided strategic advice on public relations opportunities and collaborated with agency principals on op-eds published in national media outlets such as Hyperallergic and The New York Times, amplifying VERGE's mission and thought leadership in the industry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/5c31a32d-17f2-401a-8ba4-5b08750de2ea/Onassis.png Selected Works Onassis Foundation – Social Media Strategy & Digital Engagement I led the social media strategy for three flagship programs at the Onassis Foundation: the Cavafy Festival, ONX Studio, and the Live From Mount Olympus podcast. Archive of Desire Festival: Through curated storytelling and community-focused content, we honored the legacy of queer Egyptian poet C.P. Cavafy, resulting in sold-out events and a feature in The New York Times. ONX Studio: I launched and managed the social media presence for ONX Studio, a global platform for new media art and digital culture, showcasing innovative works at the intersection of art, technology, and social issues. Live From Mount Olympus: I developed engaging behind-the-scenes content and promotional materials for the podcast, which was nominated for a Webby Award in the "Podcasts - General-Series: Scripted (Fiction)" category. Across these initiatives, I crafted sensitive and inclusive messaging that resonated with diverse audiences, amplifying the Foundation's mission and fostering meaningful engagement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/1bed9967-0e12-40a7-8b1a-cd68042d3009/Screen+Shot+2025-04-23+at+11.05.17+PM.png Selected Works Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya – Creative Collaboration & Community Engagement As Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya's creative thought partner, I contributed to projects that transformed public spaces into spheres of healing and belonging. Our collaborations included an illustrated book published by Scholastic, Inc., community engagement initiatives highlighting Chinatown's resilience and legacy, and an international exhibition sponsored by the U.S. State Department at the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre. I played a pivotal role in connecting with communities, institutions, and identifying partnerships, resulting in impactful exhibitions that fostered healing within the AAPI community. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/86504fb5-a2f3-4820-abb3-be7ad0ed94f6/BLF.png Selected Works Big Little Feelings – Communications & Community Engagement Consultant Over two years, I played a pivotal role in growing Big Little Feelings from 100K to 3.5M Instagram followers, contributing to a $3M revenue in the first quarter following the launch of their inaugural course. Collaborating closely with the content creation team, I crafted sensitive and inclusive messaging on topics such as parenthood, mental health, gun control, paid federal parental leave, autism, and LGBTQ+ issues. Our collective aim was to empower a generation of cycle-breaking parents, fostering a kinder future through evidence-based parenting approaches. As the brand's visibility expanded, I developed behind-the-scenes content, advised on specialized advocacy campaigns, and co-edited a founder's op-ed featured in TIME magazine, amplifying our mission to a broader audience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/2a65b2ba-530a-465a-a516-3afff7cf671e/LP.png Selected Works Laundromat Project Create Change Fellowship Final Project As a 2023 Create Change Fellow with The Laundromat Project, I collaborated with fellow artists and cultural producers to support the Magnolia Tree Earth Center—a historic Bed-Stuy institution founded by environmental justice pioneer Hattie Carthan—during a critical time of need. Our project encompassed three key components: Visual Awareness Campaign: We designed and distributed wheatpaste posters featuring a central image and QR code, alongside double-sided prints linking Carthan’s legacy with Lenape land stewardship practices. This suite highlighted Black and Brown histories of self-sufficiency, land care, and community resilience. Zine Publication: Titled The Anti-Capitalist Approach to a Self-Sufficient Bed-Stuy, our zine invited readers to explore themes of abundance, decolonized gardening, and collective care. It included reflective prompts and community resources, with 50% of proceeds benefiting the Magnolia Tree Earth Center. Juneteenth Activation: At a Restoration Plaza block party, we hosted a booth selling our zines, posters, and native plants donated by George Street Butterfly Garden, raising funds and awareness for the center’s preservation efforts. Through this initiative, we supported the center in raising over $100,000 in 45 days, contributing to its continued role as a beacon of ecological education and community empowerment in Bed-Stuy. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/29cb3459-3c03-4fbf-9e03-4824c7952693/BKM.png Selected Works Brooklyn Museum: A Crack in the Hourglass As Community Outreach Organizer for A Crack in the Hourglass—a participatory COVID-19 memorial by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer at the Brooklyn Museum—I led a culturally responsive engagement strategy to honor lives lost and foster collective healing. Recognizing the disproportionate impact of the pandemic on BIPOC and immigrant communities, I implemented multilingual outreach, translated exhibition materials into Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Russian, and geotargeted digital campaigns to reach diverse audiences. By integrating trauma-informed communication and community care principles, I nearly doubled submissions to the memorial archive and established best practices for inclusive engagement within the institution. This initiative exemplifies how thoughtful, equity-centered strategies can transform institutional spaces into sites of remembrance and resilience. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/ac9b67e0-ff94-4b39-af9b-2bd12f5648cd/CORE+Logo.png Selected Works https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/1749064328509-5JQXLXMY4A3FKJRKIOW8/BAM.jpg Selected Works As Marketing Manager for BAM’s Education and Community Engagement division, I led initiatives to enhance accessibility, cultural relevance, and community connection across diverse programs: After-School Arts Enrollment: Redesigned key art and application processes to resonate with teens, resulting in a 60% enrollment increase. Multilingual Outreach: Pioneered Spanish-language marketing materials for programs like BAMkids and Brooklyn Reads, expanding reach to Brooklyn’s Spanish-speaking communities. LGBTQ+ Senior Engagement: Developed inclusive visuals and print materials for BAM’s first LGBTQ+ Senior Social, achieving full attendance through targeted outreach. MLK Day Commemoration: Produced impactful visuals for the annual event featuring Nikole Hannah-Jones, strategically placing materials in local businesses to maximize community engagement. Accessibility Initiatives: Led the creation of BAM’s Accessibility page, aligning with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) to ensure inclusive digital experiences. These efforts reflect a commitment to equity-centered communication, fostering deeper connections between BAM and the diverse communities it serves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/1749064392151-8SKA85D8ER7JNLLTGXPT/UNDP.jpg Selected Works United Nations Development Programme – Programme Criticality As an Advocacy, Outreach, and Communications Specialist for UNDP's Programme Criticality initiative, I led the rebranding of the program's visual identity, developed a comprehensive style guide, and produced multilingual advocacy materials—including an impactful video, dynamic and static infographics, and a new website. Recognizing the sensitivity required for a global, multicultural audience, I meticulously crafted messaging and visuals to convey the seriousness of risk assessment and safety protocols in humanitarian operations. This involved close collaboration with stakeholders and technical experts to ensure culturally appropriate and effective communication. Despite the training being mandated by the UN Secretary-General, securing buy-in from field offices was crucial. Our targeted outreach strategy led to increased engagement across UN agencies, with over 1,000 copies of the "Practitioners’ Handbook for PC Facilitators and PC Coordination in the Field" distributed globally, training leaders and decision-makers in assessing safety and risk in the field. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68094cef212bbe1329d6d7f8/424e2f11-f4a0-429a-9c9e-ab667c45a1d3/GAUC.jpg Selected Works Global Alliance for Urban Crises – Advocacy, Outreach & Communications As the Advocacy, Outreach, and Communications Officer for the Global Alliance for Urban Crises, I spearheaded the development of the Alliance’s visual identity, style guide, and advocacy microsite. I also launched the Alliance’s website and created templates for social media, newsletters, flyers, and other collateral, ensuring all external communications were consistent and impactful. The primary objective was to raise awareness about the inadequacy of humanitarian responses in an urbanizing world and to persuade humanitarian actors to join the Alliance, thereby influencing policy and changing operations. Within a year of implementing a comprehensive advocacy strategy, the Alliance expanded to over 65 partners, including UN agencies, NGOs, mayoral associations, and academic institutions. The Alliance played a pivotal role in influencing key policy documents such as the “New Urban Agenda,” integrating urban crises and resilience into the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and contributing to the “Kuala Lumpur Declaration on Cities in 2030” during the World Urban Forum 9. The advocacy microsite, launched as an educational tool for the general public, featured case studies on urban crises and a call to action, resulting in over 300 voluntary sign-ups. The site gained visibility in over 50 countries and laid the foundation for a contact management system, email distribution list, and monthly newsletters. https://www.milagrosverendia.me/media-press
