Twyce Brand Guidelines

Twyce is a consignment store where style meets sustainability, offering a curated collection of high-end thrifted clothing and accessories. I designed and developed a logo depicting handmade typography at different baselines, styles, and weights, along with a youthful color palette that represents the playful yet elegant reputation of Twyce.

Ichor Wine Packaging

Ichor 's packaging showcases painted models as Greek god statues. The collection includes an organic grape wine for Dionysus, a pomegranate-infused one for Persephone, and a rose-infused one for Aphrodite. Each infusion pays homage to the gods themselves, and the brand name "Ichor" references the Greek gods' blood.

Drop-In App

Drop-In is an app made to address the scarcity and exclusivity of skate parks in Washington, DC. It's designed to enhance the skating experience by helping users find and share skating spots outside the realm of official parks. I designed the app’s logo, created a color palette inspired by colors found at skate parks, and designed the map and pin flow of the app.

2025 AU Design Show

The American University Design Show is an annual exhibition of selected student design work. My concept, "Where our paths cross!" was selected by AU faculty as this year's theme. As branding lead, I created signage, posters, and illustrations for the design exhibition. Additionally, I had multiple projects selected for the show by a jury of industry professionals and won 2 "Best in Show" awards.

Oro de Oro Chocolate

Oro de Oro is a chocolate bar and cocoa company. The name, which translates to “gold of gold,” is based on the Ecuadorian way of referring to the cacao bean as "the golden seed/bean," meaning this chocolate brand is the best of the best. The geometric design of the fruits and the color palette is inspired by the detailed and colorful patterns found in Ecuadorian tapestries, all which capture the lively spirit and rich culture of Ecuador and highlight the authenticity of the brand.

Intro to Chinese Painting

I designed a comprehensive website as an introduction to Chinese painting for people interested in starting to paint in this style. I researched and studied Chinese painting techniques and aesthetics to create the illustrations, all hand-drawn by me on Procreate. The website includes links to authentic materials and features a seamless design developed on Figma and Webflow.

Shakespeare Theatre Posters

I designed three promotional posters for Shakespeare plays taking place at an ampitheater. Hand-drawn on Procreate and assembled on InDesign, the visual elements show how all three are part of the same collection. The posters showcase a common theme of royalty through crowns, while the facial expressions refer to the genre of the plays and the silhouettes in the background let the beautiful crowns shine.

Santos

Santos is an organic Ecuadorian palo santo company. This design showcases the essence of palo santo smoke with an organic color palette and a custom handwritten typeface that reflects a family-owned feel, topped off with a logo reminiscent of the lit end of the palo santo.

Filosofia Type Exploration

These type exploration posters showcase creative designs that visually and verbally explore the typeface "Filosofia". With two iterations, one emphasizing the origins and the other exemplifying its use, both posters display the typeface in action along with its unique typographic features. All images featured were created by me.

The Alchemist Cover Redesign

I redesigned a book jacket for "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho by focusing on the importance of the sycamore tree to the plot of the story and depicting it on the cover. I created this tree out of sand by following methods of sand painting, and I chose this material to create the image to allude to the desert sand the main character crosses on his journey in the book.

Fudget App Redesign

This is a redesign of the budgeting app, Fudget, which was a collaboration between me and designer Jocelyn Peller. While staying true to the original color scheme and app's purpose, we reorganized the app's flow for an enhanced user experience and added features to increase the app's usefulness.
