I went to the University of Northern Iowa (UNI), I graduated May of 2022. These are some of my projects I made during my time there.
Graphic Design class projects
My last semester at UNI included a portfolio preparation class. I created a personal portfolio throughout the class.
One of my favorite restaurants is Smokey Row Coffee, they are a local coffee shop that has 9 location throughout Iowa.
For this project I wanted to showcase something that I really enjoy. I like going to national parks, I’m actually planning a trip to go in May. I started out with doing research about the park.
I was inspired by the Rocky Mountains, so I wanted to create something that represented that – so I made a Ski Lodge.
For this graphic design project we had to tell a story. I chose the quote by Walt Whitman
For a class we had to redesign a book we’ve read. I chose “The Road Back to You” by Ian Morgan Cron & Suzanne Stabile. This book is about the personality test Enneagram. You take a test, then it tells you
For a class we had to redesign a book we’ve read. One of my more recent books I’ve read is the Skincare Bible.
“The behind the scenes of wilderness” was inspired by a magazine and was our final project for Graphic Design II. The goal of the project was to showcase what we learned throughout the semester.
Magazine Spread. This class project was making a spread with a well-written article, an infographic of some kind, and a showcase recipe.
Northern Iowan projects
Every fall and spring the Northern Iowan makes a Career Fair Guide. I get the opportunity to make the 4-page insert, which includes a fun poster and a list of businesses going to the fair.
For this issue I was tasked with making a cover. Our fall career fair guide is usually a pop-culture reference and who doesn’t love friends?
When I first started at the Northern Iowan we wanted new press badges that we could use for years. We had recently got new racks for our newspapers and needed some branding signs.
