COUNTING CORAL (2021)
Counting Coral is a non-profit organization dedicated to restoring coral habitats and supporting ocean conservation efforts around the world! As a Content Creation intern, I produced and edited a videos series from educating audiences on different animal species, marine events, and progress updates in the organization's mission.
