The final project for a Third Year Design Core class presented the opportunity to work with BC Children's Hospital. This group project was done with Vince Lo and Kirsty Tsang. As a team, we wanted to create a campaign that highlighted BCCH's ability to be present throughout every stage of a patients journey (Before, During & After).

This extensive project not only focused on a renewal of BCCH's website, but a thorough look into how technology can bring new opportunities for better health care.

Some of our proposals included an online fill out form to cut back on paper work and make the sign process faster.

By, with, and for sex workers - PACE Society promotes safer working conditions by reducing harm and isolation through education and support. This school project requires students to create a promotional material for a non-profit organization. Background

On September 28th, 2010, an Ontario court struck down three provisions that criminalize activities related to prostitution. Prostitution itself is not illegal in Canada but ancillary activities like advertising (communicating) and management ("living off the earnings") are criminalized. Ontario Supreme Court Judge Susan Himel cited evidence that these laws contribute to a climate in which sex workers are unsafe because they are forced to operate in secrecy.
