Finding myself
This is a case study in brand design, where I explore the strategy and storytelling behind crafting visual identities. I’ve come to see branding as a kind of poetry—distilling the essence of something into an image that feels both remarkable and rememberable.

This is the branding and design for the ITP Stupid Hackathon. The tradition is all about keeping things janky and ridiculous—we’ve even used a photo of George Bush with the Snapchat puppy filter in past years. This time, though, I wanted to keep that spirit of chaos while also making it look a little chic. Striking that balance was definitely a fun challenge.
