This spring I spent time on and off campus with the students and faculty from Penn's School of Social Policy & Practice (SP2) and Graduate School of Education (Penn GSE).

For PCOM's Digest Magazine, we followed Kara Evans, DO '23, through a full day of her surgery residency at Temple Health–Chestnut Hill Hospital. No posed shots, no "can you do that again but smile." Just her actual day, start to finish.

We spent a day at Wehrung's shooting the whole operation — the warehouse, the lumberyard, and the retail store up front. Forklifts, stacked lumber, the yard in action, plus the bright aisles and staff on the retail side. Good mix of gritty and polished, which is exactly what a place like this needs for marketing.

Another graduation season is in the books, folks. It was MKP’s 19th year documenting graduations. This year we photographed 8,493 grads. You read that right - we got to celebrate with OVER EIGHT THOUSAND GRADS, across eleven schools, and twenty-two graduation ceremonies.

I have lived near Meadowood, a senior living community, for most of my life, and had always assumed it fit the traditional retirement-home stereotype. But in spending some time there, it turns out that Meadowood is built different.

Back in the winter, I got the opportunity to run around Manayunk and capture small businesses for an article they wrote, “Power Couples of Manayunk,” how fun is that?!

D1 Dentistry recently took ownership of an existing dental office in Lansdale. As part of the transition to new ownership, the team wanted their website and marketing materials to reflect the updated leadership, environment, and patient experience, while maintaining the practice’s status as a family business, its long history, and ties to the community.

Research continuously shows that visuals have a big influence on decision-making online. Up to 75% of users judge a company’s credibility based on website design and photos before even reading your content.

Here’s the part that matters even more: People remember only 10% of information three days after reading it. Add a photo? Recollection improves by 65%.

I got to work with Princeton's School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA) for the first time this year. I'm always blown away by the intelligent and thoughtful people I get to meet in this line of work – SPIA is a perfect example of a community where curiosity, rigor, and genuine commitment to public service come together in a way that’s both inspiring and energizing.
