Empathy Online With Spun Out Academy

An in-depth look at the illustrations and designs I completed for the folks over at Spunout. This project is by far one of my proudest works to date. A big thanks to the team for the opportunity. I thought it would be nice to also show the rough sketches I drew during my process. A little view into how I work.

You can find out more about this online course on their website. Here you can try out their online lessons and as a result build your empathy toolkit for responding to harm and supporting others online. I wish my ten year old self was shown this when she went online! Ha.

Huge thanks to Leighton Gray for the direction and making this all possible!
