Chloe Reel is a third year senior studying visual communication design with a minor in marketing. During her time here at Grace, she has taken a variety of courses to further her artistic talents, including physical arts such as acrylic painting, digital design courses, and even some photography courses. All of her hard work culminated in her senior capstone project. Chloe was given complete creative liberty with this project, the only stipulation being that at the end of the session, she had to have a finished deliverable product to present.
Chloe decided to create a coffee trail for the various coffee shops in the Fort Wayne area after participating in one in Columbus, OH. She notes that a quick Google search revealed that Fort Wayne has plenty of coffee shops with minimal marketing. This gave her the perfect opportunity to combine her two areas of study. She admits that this project was a lot of trial and error, especially when it came to her hand drawn illustrations and that her process was not straightforward in the slightest.
She visited all 11 stores and interviewed their managers on the same day, especially as an introvert.
In regards to this feat, she said. “It took me a good 48 hours of solitary confinement to recover.”
In the future, she plans to sell her coffee trail to the Fort Wayne Chamber of Commerce, so she notes that if you are interested in it to keep an eye on their website.
Chloe’s work can be viewed at chloereel.myportfolio.com.

Micaela Eberly, a third year French and Journalism double major, was looking for a way to combine both her passions for her Humanities Capstone project. She decided to interview French speakers in northern Indiana.
Eberly found many sources from Dr. Lindsay Richter. Eberly did interviews by phone, email and in person. She met many interesting people including a Haitian man who sent her a six-page response in French. Another subject was a tea shop owner from Belgium. Eberly was fascinated by the multicultural community the woman had built in Goshen, Indiana.
“Knowing I had the opportunity to highlight a community of people and to tell their stories was impactful,” said Eberly.
Eberly had her project published in the Warsaw Times-Union.
