︎︎︎ editorial design, art direction, project management

A student-run monthly magazine at Portland State University. I worked here as the Creative Director during my senior year.

I fully re-designed the typographic system and page layout of the publication while maintaining its core identity, which drew in new readership and significantly elevated the overall quality and credibility of the publication. This style guide continues to be the foundation of every issue.

In this editor/leadership role, I managed the full creative team of photographers & illustrators. I structured our time and resources via Basecamp to ensure the comprehension, quality, and punctuality of each assignment. I also served as a communication bridge between us and the writing team, leading to cohesive and thought-provoking monthly issues.

︎︎︎ publication design, typesetting

A book series authored by MFA students at Portland State University. I was a primary book designer on this project, collaborating heavily with the project lead to develop a comprehensive typographic system and page layout for a series of five books.

The design organizes large collections of academic interviews into an accessible and engaging reading experience, and is formatted as an adaptable template for use on future entries in the series.
