Meet Aja Washington, our new intern from USC's MSW Program.

Written by Brenzy, Workshop Coordinator

artworxLA welcomes Aja Washingon, our new intern from USC's Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work. Before joining our team, Aja studied Television, Film, and Media Studies at Cal State LA. Aja hopes to combine her social work practice with media and art platforms to bring awareness to various social issues. Aja will be responsible for community mapping and resource coordination projects, as well as, working with our students in our WAGEES4U program.

We congratulate Aja and thank USC for this internship opportunity.
