Ashley Khalil ('23)

Hi, I'm Ashley, I am an international student from Hong Kong who is in the graduating senior class of Environmental Design at Otis College. My brand of design is evenly balanced between functionalism and beauty. I believe that structural form should have an aesthetic appeal that simultaneously accentuates the natural beauty in its surrounding environment and that is also driven by practical considerations.

Jessica Williams

Hi! I’m a Senior in Comm Arts: Illustration, and traditional media user such as watercolor, gouache and colored pencils, whose love of nature, horror, fantasy, and fairytales has inspired an interest in making the expected, unexpected. My work represents opposites: light and dark, color and monochrome, hot and cold, natural and man-made, or playful and creepy. I like learning new things, exploring new mediums, and am not afraid to take risks to get a great result in my finished piece.
