HYPOTHEkids is an education and youth development nonprofit based in West Harlem that provides K-12 students from low-resource backgrounds with hands-on education and training opportunities in STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and design, and math), setting them on a path toward academic success and well-paying jobs.

Founded in 2013 as the outreach arm of the Harlem Biospace biotech incubator, HYPOTHEkids capitalizes on close relationships with expert educators and cutting-edge scientists from biotech start-ups and research institutions, including Weill Cornell Medicine and Columbia Engineering, to increase access to transformative work-based learning experiences. To date, HYPOTHEkids has served over 40,000 young people.

Acting as HYPOTHEkids' digital communication's manager, I assist with social media outreach & management, web design, and various graphic design tasks that come up. We've expanded HYPOTHEkids' branding to be more cohesive, created a posting system that is consistent, and grown their outreach with strategy and storytelling. It's truly rewarding to work with such a great organization and team. Learn more and follow HYPOTHEkids below!

"I'm so happy that I found Dylan! He's always professional, helpful, and responsive. Multi-talented, with a range of both technical and creative skills, Dylan manages to accomplish any task or project I present very quickly and affordably. In just a few months, he's brought several improvements to HYPOTHEkids' online presence, including integrating a donation platform into our website; establishing e-commerce functionality for our STEAM kits; and creating more visually appealing templates for social media, grant proposals, and presentations. I would recommend Dylan for anyone needing to optimize their online presence."
