    uniE621 Darwin AI Brand Guidelines
    During my time at Darwin AI, I collaborated with a lead Data Analyst and Social Media Manager to revamp Darwin AI’s social media and solidify their brand guidelines. Having recently left “startup” status, Darwin AI was looking for a fresh take on their established logo by building out their brand guidelines. Equipped with this new wardrobe, I developed and pitched several social media templates for their team to use.
    uniE621 Access 2 Education Pamphlet
    While many are familiar with bits and pieces of what schools' lack, they do not fully grasp the disparities between US schools, largely attributed to the wealth gap. The brochure aims to educate the public on exactly how inequity in education impacts our children, society, and the economy, advocating for individuals to take action.
    uniE621 Access 2 Education: Social Campaign
    Access 2 Education is a fictitious non-profit dedicated to aiding inequity in education. Challenged with creating a typography-exclusive design, the branding and subsequent advertising creates a budget-friendly solution that emphasizes the non-profit’s initiative and their call to action.
    uniE608 Barista Blends: A Starbucks Spec Campaign
    A brand known for their reliability and convenience, Starbucks has retained a loyal customer basis for several decades. Part of their loyalty means loyalty to the same drink, ordering it over and over and over. This summer campaign aims to push individuals outside their routine by pairing a barista original drink to the individual’s unique taste profile, accessible only after ordering 3 of the same drink within the week. INSIGHT / People stick to what they’re familiar with and rarely try new drinks. IDEA / Let’s encourage people to be more adventurous by allowing them to earn access to new original barista drinks.
    uniE621 1926 Bauhaus
    1926 Bauhaus documents the work, life, and impact of four prolific Bauhaus artists – Josef Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Marcel Breuer, and Walter Gropius. As such, their work from 1926 continues to influence many avenues of design today. The accordion fold book echoes the forms of Josef Alber’s Nesting Tables; each section is assigned a color, and the section’s page size increases incrementally so they “fit into” each other.
    uniE621 Joan Mitchell
    Joan Mitchell was one of the leading Abstract Expressionist painters in the 1950s, although her career spanned several decades. Competing in a male-dominated art scene, Mitchell gained a reputation as being straight-forward and bold. Reflective of her art and personality, this book features expressive linework and assertive type.
