At the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES), I worked on an exhibit highlighting Japanese War Brides, featuring 8 double-sided freestanding structures. I designed interactive community engagement activities exploring immigration patterns and created talk-back walls for visitor responses. Additionally, I developed an installation guide to assist with assembling structures, TV screens, and pop-outs. Collaborating with the team, I contributed to the graphic design of video interactive screens.
