I’m a visual designer living in Chicago. Graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts in 2020 with a BFA in Communication Design and a minor in Art History & Archaeology. I grew up in Miami, where I learned to love the blending of cultures and the appreciation of manatees and the beach.

In my design work, I am interested in connecting with people and creating with the intention of impact. Outside of design, I enjoy reading, picking up new hobbies, bike riding with friends, and visiting museums.

Swing Campaign / Rebranding / Social Media Design & Management / App UI+UX / Fall 2020—Spring 2021


App design concepts


Swing Campaign is a startup founded by Cornell Graduates in May 2020 who saw a need for unbiased voter information to help citizens be informed voters during the 2020 election. Along with basic voter education, Swing Campaign focuses on local elections, representatives and legislations which can become an oversight especially during presidential elections.

I was brought on to Swing Campaign in the Fall of 2020 to be their graphic designer for social media, flyers, and overall graphics in addition to the app design. They had existing material but it was inconsistent. I established a brand style guide using their existing logo. I continued to implement this style guide to all the collaterals and graphics and to the app design.

The visual design of the app and user interface experience are constantly developing and changing as I work with the team to improve it. Along with app design I also manage their social media presence on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter and TikTok. My role with the team has developed into Creative Director as I implement new creative processes for the Marketing and Branding Team.
