I Design, Digitally

I am a Graphic Designer born and raised in Santa Cruz, California. I graduated from Seattle Pacific University with a Bachelor’s of Arts in Visual Communications (Graphic Design) I am passionate about typography, brand design, and creating in general.

I have a deep love of popular culture. Things like retro and indie video games, animated films like Guillermo del Torro’s Pinnochio or the Spiderverse series, watching anime, and reading graphic novels are all things that I enjoy and love to share with those around me.
02 Album Cover Design

What was this for?
This project was one of the many typography projects I did during one of my design classes in my Junior Year at Seattle Pacific University.

The goal of the project was to create an album cover for your favorite song, but only start ideation after we had listened to the song on loop for about 10 to 15 times to fully absorb the feelings the song convey, the sounds used, and what the lyrics are saying/what I am latching onto. I then would start to mindmap all that I gathered from the song to create an overall feel of the song, which was summery and lively.
