Phoenix is a journal published annually by the Associated Students of Clark College in collaboration with the Art and English Departments. All contributors, editors, and volunteers are members of the Clark College community, and anyone who is a student, alumni, or faculty/staff member in the year of publication is eligible to submit work for possible inclusion.

Matthew organized literary works and selected specific images to be laid out on each page of the journal alongside other designers. He edited pages in Adobe InDesign and retouched images in Photoshop to develop and refine the visual presentation.
