SCOOP NEST

BRANDING

 For this project, I created the Scoop Nest brand. It is a warm, retro-inspired ice cream shop focused on playful character design, seasonal storytelling, and a cozy, community-driven feel. I designed a variable data print booklet tailored to different customer profiles and a full menu brochure that showcases the brand’s tone, visual system, and product offerings.

UX/UI DESIGN SPORTS HIVE 

Sports Hive is a mobile and web platform I designed and prototyped in Figma with a focus on clean visuals, intuitive navigation, and stat-driven UX. It features intuitive navigation, personalized feeds, and detailed player analytics, making it easy to track PRA, threes, rebounds, injuries, and more across seasons. The layout prioritizes efficiency and enables users to access player stats, rankings and team schedules and updates  with minimal clicks. The design system features a bold, modern aesthetic across both mobile and desktop applications.

BREWSCAPE CAFE BRANDING

This project entailed creating brand materials for a client. I chose the company Brew Scape Cafe, which embodies a serene haven for coffee enthusiasts. The project goal was to design three logotypes: a wordmark, monogram and symbol, along with a business card, and additional collateral. The task was to ensure consistency and clarity across all of the designs. For the final logo, I chose two spot colors, and two fonts, one being a ligature font found on Adobe Stock and the other font called Calder in the style LC.

PHOTOGRAPHY

My photography work spans a range of styles, including product, portrait, and sports photography. I aim to capture the emotional energy behind each subject whether it’s showcasing the details of a product, highlighting personality through a portrait, or freezing high-speed action in athletic environments. From studio setups to natural light and fast-paced events, my photography reflects versatility, intentional composition, and a strong understanding of lighting and storytelling across different settings.

MIXED MEDIA
ANIMATION

This project explores the intersection of analog and digital storytelling. Each frame of the animation was printed out and transformed using hand-applied materials. I then scanned each frame back into the computer and compiled them in Adobe Premiere Pro to create an animation. The result is a piece that highlights the beauty of imperfection and handmade motion. This process reflects both my passion for analog media and my growing skills in digital editing and animation workflows.
