I'm a graphic designer with a theoretical physics background from Italy. I'm currently exploring how I can be most useful to EA cause areas by helping communicate them through graphics.
I'd be more than happy for you to use parts of it, and feel free to DM me if you need anything in higher resolution.
It would be very helpful if you could include a small credit line like "Design by Martina Pepiciello" somewhere, but no pressure at all about this - I'd rather the work gets seen by more people without my name than stay less visible :)
Thank you so much! I didn't do most of the research myself, though - I drew upon the existing intro post for most of the content and structure as well.
And thank you for catching that, good and poor decision-making were indeed flipped. I've just updated the post and the Drive files with the correct version :)
Hello there, my name is Martina! I joined the forum yesterday.
I have a physics background and I currently work as a scientific illustrator and high school textbook editor, but I'm here to explore how I can pivot my career to have a bigger impact and also feel more fulfilled. The path I'm most drawn to at the moment is AI safety, although I still have a lot of research to do, and because I've only been working for two years I'm very open to exploring different things.
I first came across longtermism and 80,000 hours through Ali Abdaal's YouTube channel. Lately I've been reading many articles on 80,000 hours (I also applied for coaching), and from the links to this forum it looks like you have lots of great food for thought over here. I'm very excited to learn more about EA and eventually, when I feel more confident, join the discussion.
Thanks for flagging that! And sorry I missed your comment last year, I just updated all files
Ooh thank you so much for catching that! And happy you enjoyed it
Hi Elliot, so glad you like it!

Thank you! Thanks for pointing out that mistake as well, I've just fixed it :)
Thanks a lot!

Thank you Joseph, really appreciate it!
Hi Toby, thank you so much for your message!
Sure, here is a link to my scientific illustration portfolio.
Yes, I have subscribed to the Forum Digest and got yesterday's email. I plan to dive into the posts very soon :)
