So I created the Girl Activist Fellowship, an 18-month program structured as a project-based learning model where 30 girls from around the world learn by planning and executing an advocacy campaign for their peers on the global stage. The resulting campaigns nearly doubled the number of girls who have completed an activist activity with She’s the First in its first year, from 2466 in 2022 to 3598 in 2023. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52112a63e4b0e1ee795d59ac/d9868a48-2477-4339-ab80-7d72318866f5/gfi-teaser.jpg Campaigns - Program Branding and Launch: Girls First Institute Created the branding for the repackaging of She’s the First programs under the new Girls First Institute umbrella; Worked with programs team to ensure the voice and copy reflected the needs of the participant audience while staying true to our overarching organizational brand.

Girls do. Over the past decade, countless consultations around the world have asked girls and young feminists what they need. They are calling out for solidarity and justice, demanding that world leaders honour their rights and resource their work. As part of an informal coalition of more than 20 girl-centered organizations, institutions, funders and allies, I helped bring this rally in front of the UN together. I managed the communications task force to support the creative work of Sophie Lucas and Meagan Bond and the pro bono PR service from Edelman (our partner at She's the First), supported girls in our programs to attend, and photographed the event. When our collective talents came together, we created what one girl said was "the best day of my life!" https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52112a63e4b0e1ee795d59ac/bba812cd-9f49-4280-a365-e068e291b55f/Screenshot+2025-06-01+at+11.31.29%E2%80%AFAM.png Campaigns - COVID-19 Community Heroes A storytelling fundraising campaign featuring three projects by girls at She’s the First partner organizations in Peru, Sierra Leone, and Uganda.
