Cathy Liao is a senior at the University of Illinois. She is studying psychology with a concentration in cognitive neuroscience. After seeing the Internship Program advertised in the LAS Lineup newsletter, she decided to apply. Cathy interns at the Crisis Nursery as a Digital Content Specialist. Her responsibilities include creating digital content that aligns with the non-profit's mission, (the prevention of child abuse by providing 24-hour emergency care) taking and editing photographs, and creating graphics for the Nursery's volunteer handbook. She is currently tasked with designing a digital and physical volunteer handbook that includes resourceful information regarding the Nursery's expectations of a volunteer, which is to be passed out to volunteers during orientation. Cathy has learned valuable task and time management skills, and has learned how to use different editing software to enhance her photography skills! Her favorite experience was going into the nursery weekly to see and capture all the children’s laughter and smiles, and witnessing how big of an impact Crisis Nursery truly makes to those in need. Cathy will be continuing her education by attending graduate school at the University of Illinois. Some fun facts about Cathy: her favorite hobbies include drawing, baking, and going outdoors. Though she has many different artists she loves, a couple of her favorites include Joji and Childish Gambino!
