    uniE621 Illustrated Children's Book (student work)
    You Can Find Me in the Garden is an interactive, illustrated children's book that focuses on environmental conservation and ecosystem health while teaching elementary-aged children the importance of ecosystem health, gardening, and spending time outside. The book touches base on starter gardening tips, the nutritional value of growing your own vegetables, and the benefits of growing plants for your local ecosystems as well. This book aims to get children engaged with and excited about environmental care through pop-up illustrations, informational trading cards, and a match-to and scavenger hunt games. This is paired with a small branding campaign, in the Garden, which is aimed at parents and elementary educators. It showcases an ordering site, packaging design, and additional starter gardening products. In the Garden utilizes repeat patterns, scanned-in textures, and grand illustrated spreads to create a seamless blend of analog and digital art styles which I have been on a personal journey to further explore in my design and illustration career. graphicdesigner branding illustrator designer View the full project here: https://www.twine.net/signin

    uniE621 Band/Music Brand Design
    WilDanger is a Philadelphia-based band blending classic rock ’n roll roots with a modern edge. This branding project reimagines the energy of 1980s metal aesthetics for today’s audience by pairing bold typography, sharp geometric forms, and a high-contrast color palette. The resulting identity system reflects both nostalgia and reinvention: a bridge between the vintage stage and modern underground music culture.

    This Donation Bookplate Campaign was created for the Free Library of Philadelphia Foundation to celebrate reading, community, and the impact of charitable support.

The final artwork was extended across a cohesive set of campaign assets, including stickers, tote bags, bookmarks, and email banners, creating a unified donor experience across both physical and digital touchpoints. graphicdesigner branding illustrator designer View the full project here: https://www.twine.net/signin
