Cassius and Belial Comic

This comic was made for my Manga and Illustrations class. I was taught by my professor how to carry out a storyline through sixteen pages.Throughout this class, it was a course of trial and error with my timing, and I learned a great deal about the thumbnailing process. I also learned a lot about revision, and using iconography in order to convey meaning across to readers.Overall, I am incredibly proud with what I was able to accomplish in his class, as I feel I was able to pace my project well with the constraints that were present.

Omori Poster Typographical Practice

This was a poster project assigned to me where I was tasked to create posters for something I loved. In this case, I decided to create a poster about Omori, a psychological thriller RPG. I researched the history of Omori's development, and also included the major plot points in this typographic experiment.

Above are different drafts of the final poster.

Vocaloid Poster Typographical Practice

This was a poster project assigned to me where I was tasked to create posters for something I loved. In this case, I decided to create a poster about Vocaloid, specifically Hatsune Miku. Vocaloids are a musical tool used to synthesize human singing. I wanted to emulate sound using radial design. I ended up turning in my Omori Poster but I'm still proud of this design.

Bewitched Botanics Ilustrations

This is a collection of my favorite illustrations that I created for my magazine project, Bewitched Botanics. These are all meant to show fantastical flowers, as my project was supposed to be an immersive experience into the world of Counter Fate. I believe these show a lot of my illustrative skills, and I am proud of the colors I chose.

Counter Fate Concepts

This is a collection of illustrations and concepts I've created pertaining to Counter Fate, a comic concept I have been working on as a passion project, for the past 5 years.Counter Fate is a comic that follows Aileen Mae, a late blooming mage. In the world of Undaterra, magic is seen as a common practice, a way to connect to others and nature. Aileen, however, had gotten used to a life without magic. Her mom had left her family at a young age, and the bullies at her school used that as continuous ammunition.When Aileen's peace is shaken and she loses her job at her beloved bookstore, her emotions overwhelm her into a shock. In a split second, her life is turned around, and she's been enrolled into Hawthorne Academy for the Magically Gifted. With thousands of expecting eyes on her, and a drive to attempt to find her mother, Aileen now has to learn and master the magic that tore her life apart in the first place.

Above is a collection of images and illustrations I've conceptualized.

ACES Marketing and Communications Internship

From February to December of 2024, I was given the opportunity to work alongside the Senior Graphic Designer of the College of Agricultural, Consumer & Environmental Sciences at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as an intern.During this internship I was tasked with designing a variety of communications for the College of ACES. This included but was not limited to: pamphlets, awards, shirt designs, handouts, and different merchandis (like notecards). All of these had to follow the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign's brand guidelines.This opportunity taught me a lot about time-management, and working with several people to bring a project into completion. It also taught me about communication and revision!
