"Natalie's Declassified Exchange Survival Guide" By Natalie Asher

I wrote a guide for students who are preparing to participate in a short term exchange program, which highlights the best practices to get the most out of an exchange program. I gathered information from my own experiences and the experiences of my mentor to compile a series of suggestions to make a smooth transition into such an experience.

"A Fashion Process" By Megan Bordner

What does it take to design a line, photograph models, and create and edit a fashion magazine? Follow me through my journey, as I discover what separates professional design from a mere hobby. Through this research project, I have begun to design and sew my own line, produce professional photography, and edit the makings of a fashion editorial.

"Sketch to Shelf" By Hunter Ehle

In this project, I created a unique shoe design that utilizes innovative features and technology to better suit its users. From the initial ideas and early sketches to the final digital product models and advertisements, I was able to satiate a desire of mine to create a concept for my own original piece of footwear.

"Creating a Children's Book" By Olivia Schuller

My senior project included writing and illustrating a children's book. By researching my favorite childhood books, I decided to design a search and find book titled, Evas Birthday Surprise. This is a book in which a young girl goes in search of things she expects for her birthday like presents, balloons, cake, and friends while remaining oblivious to the birthday objects in each room and tearing apart her house in the process.

"PDEP or Proactive Drug Education Plan" By Regan Twomey

My project is four, forty minute lesson plans and interactive games to educate fifth graders about the uses of drugs. While accomplishing my main goal of normalizing a kid's curiosity regarding drugs, it also teaches students how to say no to peer pressure and create healthy habits.
