About Lily 

My interest and passion for the creative world started from a young age, thinking I'd be a Makeup Artist or Fashion Designer when I was little. As I got older and finished a film course in my first year of university, my love for movies, fashion and art grew. I began pursuing a career in media by making it my full-time studies at Queen's University and finding summer jobs where I could expand my knowledge and skillset in different media formats.

Over the past five years, I've developed creative skills such as creating films, developing concepts, photoshoots, and exhibitions. While harnessing these skills, I learned valuable ways to manage my time, maintain organization and be an effective collaborator.

Now, I'm seeking a place to apply what I've learned to the creative industries and find a position that will allow me to explore my creativity and continue working in collaborative settings.

Aside from my academics, I'm a very social and outgoing person. Feeling isolated from the pandemic, I took advantage of our in-person classes and joined three clubs during my last year of school (2022-2023). I became a Creative Assistant for MUSE Magazine and Queen's for Sustainable Fashion. Additionally, I was the Marketing Director for the Queen's Hellenic Student Association. Each club allowed me to meet new people and create a fantastic community, but I truly found my passion with MUSE Magazine.

MUSE Magazine is an award-winning student-run publication that releases online and prints editorials. My role was conceptualizing visual material for print releases and directing my team to execute my vision. In addition, I cast models, directed on set and edited content. My work was chosen to be the cover page of the 25th print issue titled, Double or Nothing. As well as, co-creating another editorial for the Love on the Brain Zine, titled Love Thy Self, and my final editorial for the winter issue titled, Oversight. Through this experience, I've grown fond of the creative process and confident in my creative ability.

I’m excited for what’s to come and eager to get started!
