Our Travel Soup

This case study outlines my process in order to make this site a reality as well as future goals for growth.

Storyworks Magazine

Storyworks is an English Language Arts magazine for grades 4-6. This case study explores a complete digital enhancement with entirely new UX and design to improve the user experience.

Photography

When I'm not designing, I love taking photos of the world. As I travel to various places, I strive to capture the essence of the culture and tell a story through my images. I have a passion for documenting issues around the world and using them to bring more awareness. I carefully curate my Instagram feed to reflect my journey so far.
