Your submission to Proof, the new MassArt retail store, has been reviewed and the Jury has voted to advance your contact information to the Manager of the store. Once hired, the Store Manager will be coordinating with you directly regarding which items will be included in the inventory. I would expect that you will hear from the Manager early this fall.

Thank you for your partnership with the College!

Moving On…

Julie Chen — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 02:47:13 +0000

Today, I officially turned in my resignation letter at Payette as Model Services Coordinator and August 20th is tentively my last day. I have worked for the firm for nearly six years, learned much over my time there, and worked on several life-altering projects. Now I break forth, immersing myself into the MassArt community! I will be attending the Studio for Interrelated Media full-time, while working for the department as a consultant and back-up department representative in the Student Government Association. I will also be folded-in with the architecture department in the Solar Decathlon efforts, collaborating with MassArt/MassArt Foundation’s PR and Marketing teams.

Exciting, but still need some freelance jobs to get by. Let me know if someone needs support in some way. I tutor software and web design, also!

New Website in the Works

Julie Chen — Fri, 28 May 2010 00:30:20 +0000

After working with WordPress for Common Boston (www.commonboston.org) and for my personal blog (busyjulie.com), I’ve decided to take the leap and use WordPress for my portfolio website, to replace my current hard-coded HTML site (juliechen.net). Coming soon! Here’s a peek:

New WordPress website coming, with homepage slideshow! This slide features my documentation of Cori Spencer's Little Black Topsy and the Magical White Fairy Soap.
