The logo transforms Groops’ “O’s” into overlapping speech bubbles to highlight the power of conversation.

Our bright and refreshing color palette stands apart from the competition's subdued hues and conveys the raw candor that Groops encourages in their virtual conversations.



Our patterns highlight the open conversations that happen in Groops.


Our warm editorial photography style captures raw and candid moments to convey the authenticity members can expect to feel when joining Groops.




Our digital redesigns – from email, to web, to the member dashboard – greet current and future members with a refreshing, bold, and easily navigable experience.


Zoetis Equine
Brand Identity, Brand Book
Coming from a category filled with fear- and performance-based marketing, our strategy aimed to capture the emotion behind horse care with the rallying cry “Long Live the Horse.” To bring the brand to life visually, we’ve homed
in on the beauty of connections between caregivers
and horses that show a reciprocity of care – both
putting in as much as they receive.

The campaign’s pattern system is derived from the Zoetis logo and reflects the movement of a horse’s tail

Our color palette builds on Zoetis’ corporate color system by incorporating additional
earth tones that add a premium feel and celebrate horses’ beautiful coats and natural
environments.


Our photography system captures real moments of hard work that vets and horse owners put in to champion horses’ quality of life while our pattern system and typefaces convey the freedom and movement of
horses.

We produced a brand book to launch the campaign internally at Zoetis with print techniques ranging from clear varnishes and intricate diecuts to emotive substrates and gate folds to bring the brand to life.


GOAT

Power to the Pedestrian
Publication, Photography, Web Design
This project centers around a 186-page publication that visually explores automobile dominance in Minneapolis with strategies to return power to pedestrians by way of graphic and urban design.
The vast majority of Minneapolis streets are dominated by car traffic and are unsafe for pedestrian life. That said, many residents are unsure of how to advocate for their neighborhoods and what design strategies are available beyond lowering speed limits. This publication equips urban residents of Minneapolis with knowledge of data, traffic calming strategies, and resources for advocating for people-first infrastructure on their local streets in order to create future streetscapes that benefit all users.
Read more about the project’s process, inspiration, and sources on my self-coded capstone page here.
