Shamarah Johnson

Shamarah Johnson is a senior majoring in English! She heard about the ATLAS Internship Program from Kirstin Wilcox. Shamarah is a Website Content Strategist for the Center for African Studies (CAS) and Center for Latin and Caribbean Studies (CLACS)! As a Website Content Strategist, Shamarah is responsible for ensuring that both centers' sites are working to the best of their ability. She also uploads, reformats website content, and works alongside clients using Drupal and Google Analytics. For the CLACS, she is currently developing the website so that it is synonymous with the newly created social media accounts, as well as updating contact information for faculty and staff. For CAS, she is using Drupal to update faculty and staff information alongside the ATLAS Web Team in order to successfully turn the Habari Newsletter, into an Electronic Newsletter. 

Shamarah plans to take a gap year after graduating, but will explore options within Media and Communications! Through her internship with ATLAS, Shamarah will be able to to independently develop webpages with Drupal including aspects such as images, videos, and titles that are both ascetically pleasing. In addition, to helping create material that can transferrable to the social media pages and allowing the centers to engage with consumers on platforms outside of their webpages. One of Shamarah's personal goals is to create something completely creative and new using Drupal! A fun fact about Shamarah is that music is her favorite self-care activity.
