Who runs the world?
Nellie Bly
For this assignment, I was asked to create a visual one-pager based on the journey of a 20th-century explorer. I chose Nellie Bly, a groundbreaking journalist who raced around the world in 72 days. My goal was to turn her story into a digital experience that informs, excites, and inspires.

Situation
An explorer, a blank page, a choice.
For this school brief, we were asked to pick a 20th-century explorer and turn their journey into a visual one-pager. I chose Nellie Bly - a journalist who raced around the world in 72 days and defied every expectation of her time.
Our Goal
Make her story impossible to look away from.
Turn Nellie Bly's journey into a digital experience that informs, excites, and inspires - one that honours her fearlessness without flattening it into a history lesson.
