🆕 New Creative Notes Blog!

As part of my Digital Marketing studies at CWU, I created an infographic exploring platforms that support independent artists beyond Spotify.

🎵 **More Than Streams: Exploring Platforms That Support Independent Artists**

The infographic looks at fan support, discovery, community, and artist control across several music platforms.

What platform do you think best supports independent artists?

Last night, I finished designing my second issue of *The Observer* for CWU's student newspaper! 🎉

I also received permission to showcase my work on my portfolio website, which is pretty cool. 😎

Over the next two years, I'll be adding more projects and designs to **ShelsLPixi.com** as I continue working toward my BA degree in Graphic Design and Marketing. 😁

It's exciting to see both my education and portfolio growing together!

I know there are some people who may not fully see the work I’ve put into building LTATM Radio alongside my college degree. While that perception is out there, I’m focused on continuing to grow and share the progress I’ve made.
