TRANSCRIPT
Ever since I was little, my feet have been in the clouds and head in space. Constantly dreaming and letting
my mind wander. But, I needed something
to keep my whimsical muses in order. Which
is why I started my blog, a random collection of images and inspiration. This is my resource for the ideation of projects
as well as a way to practice the skill of art
direction.

My artwork progressed from fine art to a more
graphic aesthetic. Studying the power of
black and white. Positive and negative. Type.
Texture. The harmony of
opposites.

New York City has always been a major part of my life. The museums help to create the culture of the city that I thrive for.
A rebranding of the Museum Mile is
necessary in order to create its advertising
campaign. This project includes a complete style
guide.

Typography is proof that opposites can
come together to create something beautiful. This type specifications book explores the fonts Script MT and Baskerville. It is in the style of a formal
book of etiquette. Script MT is a bold font that conveys spontaneity
and liveliness. Complementing this font is Baskerville, a serif font that is sharp and formal.

Information graphics and video was a good medium to combine my research, typographic, and design skills. The following are stills from an awareness video
addressing the harms of magazine waste on the
environment.

Plastic bags have become the main
element in shopping in our society. The following is a call to action video
campaign giving a solution to the excess
of plastic bags; a stylish, foldable, portable, and durable re-usable bag.

Most remarkable is the juxtaposition of the natural and the artificial. I conducted a research
project on holistic healing that soon developed into a study on the placebo and the power of ones
mind.

You can find beauty in everything and everyone. The nonprofit organization
Urban ArtBeat needed a strategy. In a group of five we created a growth plan. I was in charge of the marketing segment.
Curiosity leads us down new paths, mapping them out can create
innovative concepts. In business models and
planning my group members and I created a business plan for a
brand-consulting agency.
Patterns in society and culture connect to trends for the future. Touch was a trend that we analyzed which developed into the
idea of involving all the senses in elements of
design and technology.

Exploring can happen in the city, in companies, and with in yourself.
Internships have been the ultimate form of
exploration.
