Morgan Quinn - Writing & Design Samples

M O R G A N Q U I N N

I'm a recent University of Georgia graduate with a bachelor's degree in journalism, fashion and business, as well as a certificate in new media technologies.

I'm a writer at heart with a passion for social media, design and content creation.

This past year, I had the pleasure of working with an incredibly talented student staff writing for The Oglethorpe Echo, a 148-year-old weekly newspaper that was on the brink of being shut down year ago.

I was able to join as one of their first summer interns, and I was assigned to cover local businesses in Oglethorpe County. This internship has served as a kind of community journalism learning lab for myself and the other student interns reporting and writing weekly multi-platform stories. The experience has been mutually beneficial, because as a rural county has gained a quality news source, I have gained insight on the importance of providing more diverse, innovative and reliable news to communities.

I interned with Yale University last summer and fall. After meeting Broc Hazlet, the Associate Director of Brand Management for Yale's athletics department, I landed a remote position designing new merchandise and apparel for their online store.

I oversaw the entire production process from design to drop. I was given the opportunity to direct and curate the social media campaign for the merchandise once the production was complete.

Being able to work on these designs from start to finish, with the privilege of Broc trusting my vision and ideas, was a dream come true and sparked my love for design.

CONCEPTS FOR "HANDSOME DAN" BULLDOG MERCHANDISE LINE

During my fourth year at UGA I worked as the Styling Director for one of the 13 Strike Magazine chapters across the nation. I led a team of six stylists for the student-led nonprofit fashion and culture magazine.

I had so much fun planning and editing models' head-to-toe looks for the magazine's print and digital issues and coordinating communication between stylists and beauty team members to ensure a smooth process.

I learned about managing a creative team and working cross-functionally with other directors to capture Strike's concepts and brand effectively.
