Hi! I’m Jillian. In my personal and professional projects I strive to be a narrative specialist and a technical generalist. I care deeply about telling important stories in impactful ways. 

I’m pursuing my MS in Computational Design because I think computational methods open up important avenues for rigorous, truthful, and impactful storytelling.

I plan to center my research around questions of interactivity, representation, and narrative justice. I hope to explore these themes as they relate to journalism, museum exhibitions, and other public-facing efforts. 

I previously ran an award-winning podcast, Pit Perspectives UNC, which investigated social and political topics through the eyes of UNC students.
