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, and visiting museums.

The Marriage Pact brings a questionnaire, backed by the latest research on romantic compatibility, to university campuses to match students with their most compatible person on campus. Beyond the questionnaire, The Marriage Pact has put out several apps, and is continuously developing products to shake up the modern day dating game.
As a designer for the core team, I constantly collaborated across different teams to provide design assets and tools that help preserve the integrity of our visual brand. Designed both digital and print promotional to materials to help advertise our launches across university campuses.

For the social media posts, along with posts about couples, I visualized data in a compelling way for instagram. These posts averaged 150+ likes.
I developed a new key element to our brand’s visual language by scanning our emoji stickers, and used the results to convey more emotion in the movement of the figures.
The sticker scans are used in everything from our social posts, to our website graphics to emails we send out. I grabbed an existing brand element and revived it by making it dynamic and expanded with the different scans.
To develop the library of scanned stickers further, for different use cases, I developed a system of levels of deterioration. The more scanned and deformed the sticker is, the less recongizable it becomes, and it becomes a texture.
