Sparks Magazine is a student-produced magazine at the University of Central Florida that focuses and highlights the issues surrounding the Asian Pacific Islander Desi American community. Sparks Magazine won 2021 Organization of the Year at APAC's Hidden Lotus Awards.
As Lead Designer, I collaborated with the Lead Photographers in producing the final layout of the magazine, including the cover photo, the masthead, table of contents, page layout and order, and back page. Followed a style guide I set, along with the National Board of Sparks.
