Through my work this year, I intend to prove that physical health and productivity are a direct result of a healthy emotional life.

Physicians, psychologists, researchers, and other health professionals continue to find evidence and proof that emotions are deeply connected to physical health through the brain. This kind of information is available, but has not yet permeated popular consciousness. I am interested in how graphic design can serve as the medium of communication of both science and art, the physical and psychological. I plan to present my research in a visually stimulating manner by adding emotion to facts or by diagramming that which is typically un-diagrammed.
