Fresh Press

Working at Fresh Press, first as a Paper Maker and later as Studio Manager, I learned the ins and outs of western-style paper making using local agricultural fibers (think corn, prairie grass, soy, sunflower!) as well as discovering and combining my passions of art, sustainability, and the environment while building upon every aspect of the business. I helped create Open Studio Fridays where our studio was open to the University and community to stop by and observe our paper making process. I also conducted workshops for various age groups as well as sell our work and answer questions at pop-up shops. 2015-2019

Fall CSA promo video: Meet The Maker

I created this video series campaign to share our stories on what we love most about Fresh Press. This was to showcase our transparency and invite people into the papermaking process and learn more about each of the papermakers. It was launched on our Facebook page and accompanied by Instagram posts to raise awareness on Fresh Press and encouraging people to reserve shares of our upcoming CSA paper project. 2017
