Cuentos de Oro
I'm immersing myself in the rich tapestry of my family's history by creating a newsletter based on my El Salvadorian and Ecuadorian heritage. My journey with The Commonwealth Times has been instrumental in igniting my passion for newspaper layout design. Ecuador in particular has a legacy of indigenous civilizations like the Incas and the Quitu-Cara people, who crafted gold artifacts long before the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors. I use the concept of 'oro' (gold), as a metaphor to represent the invaluable wealth of familial stories and traditions that have been passed down through generations. In addition to writing and designing articles, I plan to create a new family tree to serve as a reference tool for future generations. Therefore, demonstrating the longevity of the project that goes beyond the university wall.
