    As part of my internship with McLean County Unit 5 School District, I designed several logos and mascots for their schools.

    Design Problem
    School doesn’t have access to a high quality logo. Wants a new modern and kid friendly logo for their elementary school.

    What I did
    Built a mood board with ideas and inspiration. Met with Principal where I shared my mood board to get an idea of what their ideal logo is. Then made sketches, concepts, and the final design.
