The High Museum of Art's Teen Team is an internship for 13 selected students from different schools in/around Atlanta. The program lasts from June 6, 2023, to June 1, 2024. I worked an 8-week summer incentive 4 days a week and 7 hours a day. During the summer, we planned family and teen events, including creating/curating/installing a Teen Art Exhibit in the museum. Throughout the year, the team worked about 3 special event days a month, each lasting about 8 hours. Events include providing families with free art supplies and encouraging creation-making across various demographics.
I worked as an associate for the Splatter Studio from November 2022 to October 2023. The Studio, inspired by the works of Jackson Pollock, is a place for people of all ages to come in and create art with no limitations. Using the space and various utensils provided, people could freely make a mess and allow movement while creating their unique artwork. I helped run the studio by cleaning and setting up stations, washing all materials, and allowing customers to enjoy their time creating, as well as attending to their needs and assistance.
I started playing volleyball on the JV team during my freshman year and was promoted to JV Captain during my sophomore year. In my junior year, I joined the Varsity team as the libero. In my senior year, I became a defensive specialist.Â
