Léa van der Tak

PhillyCAM
Digital Media Specialist
Philadelphia, PA

I am an illustrator, graphic designer, and video professional in the non-profit sector. I would like to help change perspectives and policy on a local level to protect communities from corporate greed, environmental concerns, systematic racism, patriarchal constructs, and LGBTQ+ discrimination. I always hope to make new connections at conferences, so feel free to talk to me about anything!
