There is so much more to me than this website and my resume. But, in a nutshell…

Hi! My name is Bella and I’m a 24 year old Master’s student in Library and Information Sciences. Why do I have a creative portfolio if I’m studying to be a librarian? Well, I have a thorough background in nonprofit outreach for different programs that I am incredibly proud of, and felt they were deserving to be shared here. After finishing four years at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and a summer with Denver Ad School, I’m insanely excited for the next steps of my career and am ready to take any opportunity that comes my way, so feel free to contact me via email and let’s chat! I also often update an In and Out list every few weeks of what I like or dislike (for fun of course), so here’s my recent update:

In:

  • Finishing a good book.

  • Treating yourself to a bouquet of flowers from the grocery store.

  • A solid lip balm (for me: Glossier Balm Dot Com).

Out:

  • Trying to meet people’s expectations.

  • Winter blues (FINALLY)!

  • Chaotic airport security lines.
