about

As someone who got ecstatic about letters and reading growing up (the serif 'g' is still my favorite), I now have decided to make a portfolio for all my graphic design stuff. A little, itty bitty, small steps, tiny projects type of gathering.

Thesis Project: Bad Design Anthology

This project began as a thesis but grew into something bigger: a magazine, a concept, and a conversation starter. The Bad Design Anthology is a norm-critical, norm-breaking publication that explores racism and white privilege in the field of design. It was created to challenge the invisible structures within our profession and offer a broader view of what graphic design can be.

My Chemical Romance - Foundations Album

The artwork for Foundations was designed to feel unearthed rather than created, something found, worn, and imperfect. The minimal composition and distressed textures hint at decay and resilience, echoing the band’s themes of rebirth and emotional ruin. By keeping the palette monochrome and the typography stark, the cover balances nostalgia with a sense of finality - like a relic from an era that refuses to fade.
