At the David Graeber Institute, I had the opportunity to blend my technical skills with creative storytelling, supporting an organization dedicated to the radical reimagination of economic and social systems. My work focused on both digital infrastructure and media production, helping to bring the Institute’s vision to a broader audience.
One of my key contributions was designing, configuring, and launching a fully functional Shopify store. From setting up product listings and customizing the front-end experience to managing backend workflows and payment integrations, I ensured that the store reflected the values and identity of the Institute while maintaining professional-grade usability and performance. The end result was a streamlined e-commerce platform that enabled the Institute to distribute publications and merchandise directly to supporters.
In parallel, I worked closely with the content team to edit and produce high-quality videos for events, talks, and campaigns. My background in media production enabled me to translate complex ideas into engaging visual narratives. Whether it was polishing interviews or designing user interfaces, my focus was always on clarity, tone, and accessibility.
My time at the David Graeber Institute taught me how to work across disciplines—bridging technology, design, and activism—to build platforms that are not only functional but meaningful. It was a rare opportunity to contribute to an organization inspired by an author whose work I deeply admire, using my technical expertise in service of progressive change.
