This project consisted of creating sustainable packaging. The idea I had was instead of having a seed packet with the seeds in it, the paper consists of the seeds to be planted.

This project was to create packaging for diverse forms of containers. I chose to go with three different glass bottles. From there, I decided I was going to design labels for the bottles. I decided to create a brand of skin care called Rilassri. I chose this word because the word “Rilassri”, which is an Italian word that means relax. I went along and created the brand identity of Rilassri, and created labels to go along with the brand feel I was establishing.

This project is based off of The Red Door Saloon located in Nashville, Tennessee! In my Typography 4 class I redesigned their menu.

This project was the redesigning of a menu. I chose to go with redoing the menu for The Red Door Saloon. The Red Door Saloon is a bar in Nashville, Tennessee and is known for being a fun and hip place. They are known for the color red and skeletons, so I really wanted to incorporate that into their updated menu. I rebranded their identity throughout this as well, but am pleased to have created it to be fun as well as professional.

The University of Akron’s Graphic Design class every year holds a Senior Exhibition. The Senior Exhibition is to showcase the classes’ portfolios, as well as market their work as soon to be professionals in the field.

I had the privilege to not only showcase my portfolio and market myself, but also to help market the entire class. As the team leader for the Social Media Committee, I was able to successfully lead our team to show off our exhibition.

Not only do I have a love for design, but I also have a love for Social Media Marketing and I am thrilled to show all that my team and I created for Bold.

Other team members include:

Natalie Metzgar, Halle Newman, Mariam Saadani

This project was project based off of portraits for my commercial photography class. In the class there were a group of us who set up, styled, and shot our concepts together that way we wouldn’t have to all set up different set ups, and focus more on how to capture the best portraits. In these portraits I wanted to focus not only on the beauty of life, but also mental health.
