Featured Projects
MAGNUS Magazine - Brand Identity
The word Magnus originates from Latin, meaning "great" or "significant." While traditionally associated with strength and authority, I saw an opportunity to redefine what those qualities could look like through a modern lens. The concept was built around the belief that strength doesn't have to be loud, and elegance can be just as impactful as confidence.
Borrasca Campaign - Total Wine and More
Borrasca's packaging already had strong shelf presence, driven by its distinctive glitter-inspired label treatments and bold visual personality. The challenge was to create a campaign that amplified these unique packaging elements while increasing brand visibility, strengthening product recognition, and helping the brand stand out in a highly competitive retail environment. I needed customers to perceive Borrasca as premium, celebratory, and gift-worthy.
AARP - Visual Storytelling
For this AARP project, my goal was to create a visual system that felt both sophisticated and approachable, reflecting the organization's commitment to empowering individuals through knowledge and community.
