PERSONAL BRAND
SABERSHIELD
CYBERSECURITY
This was my first logo project for a real client, which made the process especially meaningful.
The shield shape is intentionally designed to resemble the letter “S”, directly referencing the SaberShield name and strengthening brand recognition. The central vertical form represents a saber, symbolizing strength, precision, and active defense within the cybersecurity space.
GREENACRE FINANCE
This logo was designed to feel clean, modern, and trustworthy, reflecting the professional nature of a financial brand.
The abstract geometric form subtly references the letter “G”, directly connecting the symbol to the name Greenacre. Sharp angles and balanced negative space convey clarity, growth, and forward-thinking financial strategy.
CHICAGO LEGACY FC
Chicago Legacy FC is a concept visual identity and brand system I created for a fictional soccer club. The project includes a custom logo, kit designs, promotional posters, matchday graphics, and a cohesive aesthetic inspired by Chicago’s character and ambition. My goal was to build a modern, timeless brand direction that feels authentic enough to exist in the real sports world.
BRAND MANAGEMENT
CHICAGO BUTCHER SHOPS
During my internship with Chicago Butcher Shops, I worked on brand management with a strong focus on social media content creation. It was a great opportunity to develop visually interesting and unique designs, even within a traditional industry like a butcher shop. This experience allowed me to explore creative storytelling while staying true to the brand’s identity.
BRAND MANAGEMENT
TYKES N HOUNDS
During my internship with Tykes N Hounds, I combined social media design with creating advertisements and promotional materials for print. This role allowed me to work across both digital and physical formats while maintaining a consistent brand identity. It was a valuable experience in translating creative concepts into effective marketing visuals.
BRAND IDENTITY
WV SPORTS GRIND
For my senior capstone project, I created the logo and part of the brand identity for WV Sports Grind, an organization focused on supporting mental wellness through sports. This project gave me the chance to develop a professional, meaningful visual identity from the ground up. It was a great experience in combining design, purpose, and storytelling for a real organization.
