Overview
Where Creativity Meets Purpose
During my internship with Disney, I contributed to a wide range of health and safety design projects for the Disney Wild About Safety Program during an especially exciting period of transformation! The program was undergoing a full rebrand with a new sponsor, which meant every platform and asset needed to be refreshed, opening the door for more creative, cohesive, and modern design solutions.
I played a key role in redesigning the entire Wild About Safety website, as well as updating the Champion Program portal and guides to align with the new brand identity. In addition, I developed interactive and engaging materials such as activity sheets for children and families, along with other supporting resources. Throughout each project, I focused on translating important safety messaging into visuals that were clear, engaging, and distinctly Disney.

Final Thoughts
Learnings
My spring with Disney taught me how fun and fast-paced tech design can be. I got to turn complex engineering and impactful ideas into clean, eye-catching graphics for recruitment, product marketing, social media, and much more!
One of my favorite parts was collaborating with the Creative Operations team (my team!). From project managers to TI Studios and designers, they all helped me learn how big ideas come to life across so many moving pieces. This internship showed me how to create visuals that are clear, engaging, and people-friendly, no matter how technical the topic is. And honestly, it made me even more excited about designing in the tech world.
