Hi! I'm Katie, and I'd love to be your Head of Design @ UNCL this year!
I'm a presenter on the station, but (beyond getting to talk about music) one of my favourite aspects of this has been the accompanying design work and promotion I've put into it. Highly creatively fulfilling, I've loved seeing this effort pay off; growing my show and having the opportunity to work with some amazing UCL artists. I really believe in the importance of student radio not only as a means to grow skills and confidence; but as an opportunity to connect creatively with those around you, fostering community and, most importantly, having so much fun.
I've just been lucky enough to contribute to the latest issue of UNCL on layouts, which has been equally fulfilling and fun. Working collaboratively with UNCL's amazing team has taught me so much I would be thrilled to bring to this role; whether that be the frustrating nitty gritty of indesign (iykyk), or creating striking (and, of course, legible) visuals. Hopefully you'll be able to see some of my work in the latest issue, but if not, I've tried to put together a little portfolio in lieu of my candidate photo. As your Head of Design, I'd love to first and foremost keep up UNCL's amazing work, but also look into a diversity of content; more video work, community-minded social media and UCL artist promotion to name just a few ideas.
