The Oval

The University of Montana's one and only undergraduate literary magazine

Design and Layout Editor

I served as the Design and Layout Editor for Vol. XV, 2022 of The Oval. I lead a small design team in preparing a first draft proof, and worked with our Editor-in-Chief to finalize the layout. I completed all copy and design edits before working with our printer to publish the final issue.

As Design and Layout Editor for Vol. XVI, 2023 of The Oval, I was the only designer working to design the 100 page book, with much appreciated assistance from Visual Arts Editor Nance Beston.

I also served as a member of the nonfiction boards, and single-handedly designed two staff editions, available soon as a PDF document in the Mansfield Library archives.

I will continue to serve in both positions in Vol. XVII, 2024 of The Oval.
