The Komenda Project - Non Profit Organization

Challenge: The Komenda Project, a startup nonprofit supporting education and mentorship in underprivileged communities, needed a stronger visual identity to effectively communicate its mission and attract support.

Tincup Mountain Whiskey - Truck Wrap Advertisement Campaign

This campaign was designed to bring Tincup American Whiskey to life across key markets in California, Texas, and Colorado through large-format advertising. The objective was to create an eye-catching, emotionally resonant visual that stood out in transit and outdoor environments — much like a billboard would. The client requested a refresh from their traditional rugged, moody visuals, seeking something that felt more vibrant, optimistic, and location-specific. I developed multiple concepts built around the contrast of bright blue skies, open landscapes, and crisp product imagery — evoking a sense of freedom and adventure while staying true to the brand’s Western spirit. Working across layout, art direction, and visual storytelling, I explored compositions with product hero shots and action pour moments to build dynamic movement and visual hierarchy that would translate seamlessly from truck wrap to billboard to digital use. This project strengthened my approach to designing campaigns that connect through both emotion and clarity — a skill directly applicable to creating compelling ads.…This campaign was designed to bring Tincup American Whiskey to life across key markets in California, Texas, and Colorado through large-format advertising.

Sustainable Storytelling — Amazon Storefront Rebrand

I led the visual and content redesign of Full Circle Home’s Amazon storefront, transforming it into a cohesive brand experience that balanced sustainability education, storytelling, and conversion strategy. The goal was to translate the brand’s eco-conscious mission and materials — from bamboo and recycled plastic to compostable plant fibers — into a clear, engaging digital experience. Through refined layout systems, product photography, and modular content blocks, I created a flexible design framework that could scale across A+ content, landing pages, and mobile storefronts. Each section emphasized clarity, warmth, and transparency, helping consumers understand how everyday choices contribute to a more sustainable lifestyle. The rebrand elevated the storefront’s visual impact and improved navigation, positioning Full Circle Home as both a design-forward and environmentally responsible brand within the competitive e-commerce landscape.…I led the visual and content redesign of Full Circle Home’s Amazon storefront, transforming it into a cohesive brand experience that balanced sustainability education, storytelling, and conversion strategy.

DIVAS for Social Justice — STEAM for Social Change Annual Catalog

Each year, I design and produce the annual “STEAM for Social Change” Catalog for DIVAS for Social Justice, a Brooklyn-based nonprofit empowering youth through art, technology, and community activism. The 2024–2025 edition highlights the organization’s programs across New York and Minneapolis — from makerspace workshops and hydroponics education to student reflections inspired by The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz — illustrating how creativity and social impact intersect. I developed a clean, editorial layout system that balances educational content, student writing, and photography, ensuring the publication feels both engaging and accessible for readers of all ages. The design emphasizes clarity, color harmony, and storytelling to reflect DIVAS’ mission of inclusion and empowerment. The catalog serves as both an annual report and community showcase, distributed digitally and in print to schools, partners, and funders, and has become a cornerstone of the organization’s visual identity and storytelling strategy.…Each year, I design and produce the annual “STEAM for Social Change” Catalog for DIVAS for Social Justice, a Brooklyn-based nonprofit empowering youth through art, technology, and community activism.

For Good by Full Circle — Product Education & Awareness Campaign

The “For Good” campaign was designed to communicate the brand’s mission of replacing single-use plastics with compostable, plant-based alternatives. The goal was to visually simplify scientific and environmental data into approachable, educational storytelling that could perform across digital and physical touchpoints. Creative Approach: I developed a clean, modular system of infographics and layouts highlighting why For Good products matter — from materials (PLA and PBAT) to the full lifecycle of compostable products. The campaign used a bright, optimistic color palette and consistent typography to align with the brand’s eco-conscious yet accessible identity. Each layout was optimized for flexible use across billboards, print collateral, and social platforms. Deliverables: Educational Infographics: Illustrated explainers such as “Why For Good Products?” and “A Day in the Life of a Compostable Bag” visualized complex sustainability concepts through approachable icons and circular process diagrams. Impact Stats: Data-driven designs like “Did You Know?” transformed environmental impact metrics into visually bold, shareable graphics. Lifestyle Comparisons: Side-by-side compositions contrasted compostable vs. plastic product lifecycles, helping audiences instantly grasp the ecological benefits. Presentation Deck: A cohesive pitch-style deck for internal use and retail partners, reinforcing messaging consistency and visual hierarchy across product lines (Party, Storage, Kitchen, etc.). Outcome: These assets became the cornerstone visuals for For Good’s educational content and retail storytelling, adaptable for trade shows, retail displays, digital campaigns, and website features — ensuring the brand’s sustainability mission resonated visually and emotionally with consumers.…The “For Good” campaign was designed to communicate the brand’s mission of replacing single-use plastics with compostable, plant-based alternatives.
