The Feed

2025
HTML, CSS, Java Script
I built The Feed entirely from scratch to strengthen my front-end development skills. My “The Feed” code emphasizes on a clean structure, responsive design, and usability, without relying on website builders or templates. It showcases my most-used apps and tells a story about why they’re meaningful to me in a playful way.

6-Word Memoir

2025
Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator, 
Print, Paper
I created this 6-word memoir to showcase my identity and creative journey. The words “Track Spikes off. Imagination running free.” capture this moment in my life, where I’m stepping back from running and investing deeply in my design work. This piece challenges me to communicate meaning and emotion with minimal language, reflecting my commitment to clarity and intentionality as both a designer and storyteller. Its simplicity mirrors my aesthetic values, while its brevity encourages viewers to pause and reflect.

Postcard

I designed this postcard to explore the theme of contrasting dualities. Dark and light, young and old, happy and overthinking, joy and fear. My bold visual composition of symbolic contrasts invites the viewer to reflect on emotional balance and the coexistence of opposites.


Coffee Table

2023
Wood, Glue, Nails, Electric Screwdriver, Paper, Pencil
I designed and built this custom wooden coffee table for my own living space. I started with hand-drawn sketches, then I created a to scale model in order to refine dimensions and structure. When I was satisfied with the design, I got the wood and constructed the final table. This project reflects my concept to execution, blending functionality, craftsmanship, and aesthetics.

Type Studies

2025
Adobe InDesign, Print
I developed this series of typographic studies to explore the relationship between text, composition, meaning, and interest. The content and compositions contend with a diversity of subject matters, mediums, typographic arrangements, hierarchy of information, and underlying text/grid structures. These studies also establish an understanding of typographic experimentation, functionality, and working within visual constraints.

Climate Crisis Charity Event

2025
Squarespace, Sketchbook Pro
I designed a website for Green Tomorrow, a benefit event that raises awareness about climate change. The site highlights the cause, the event schedule, but also provides an easy way for visitors to donate. I hand-painted the logo in Sketchbook Pro, which adds a personal touch to the branding and reflects the focus on nature and sustainability. The design is minimal and inviting, with muted earth tones to create an inviting, hopeful aesthetic.
