Hi, my name is Nydia MacDonald and I’m a first-year Dlab student at One Stone, and I am very passionate about being able to explore my passions. I have had so many incredible opportunities to work on projects that I am proud to be a part of. At the beginning of the year, I had the opportunity to work on an ad and informational video campaign with the Boise-based company salt! This project became really important to me because Saalt is truly an incredible company that cares about creating a more comfortable period experience for people with menstrual cycles. I found that I wanted to put my all into this project because I am passionate about what the company values and the products they create. I am very passionate about sustainable period care, so I am so grateful that I got to work with a company that wants to do good. We had the opportunity to help write, ideate, produce, and direct the videos. I was really excited to be a part of this however it was really scary because it was my first two birds project and I had never done anything like this before. I really wanted to dive in, but in doing that I definitely think I took on more than I should have because I got really overwhelmed near the end of the project. Luckily for me, I had an incredible support system in Michael, Jeff, and Jun. I am infinitely grateful for them because they helped me get through a rather difficult time during this project. I am so grateful that I got to work on this project and it’s definitely one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had. Regardless of the ups and downs that came along with this project. I am glad that I got to be a part of this experience, and I am grateful that I got to work with an incredible group of people!
