re—cur

Generative Systems, Publication, Installation

2025

re—cur is a generative, system-driven body of work examining cycles of creative intake, overload, stabilization, and repetition. The project emerged from an interest in the unseen pressures of creative practice, including burnout and the constant demand to produce. Built through custom code, the work produces visuals that evolve through accumulation, decay, and constraint. The work exists across multiple forms, including generative visuals, a publication, an interactive tool, and a physical installation. Together, these components document both the system itself and the experience of working within it.

Catalyst

Editorial Design, Branding, Art Direction

2024

Catalyst responds to the underrepresentation of women in sports media by centering female athletes as cultural figures rather than exceptions. The biannual magazine highlights athletic achievement alongside identity, visibility, and influence, reframing success beyond competition alone. As the project evolved, Catalyst expanded into a broader brand system that included digital concepts, social media, merchandise, and collaborative initiatives, using design as a tool to amplify voices, build community, and shift how women’s sports are seen and discussed.

type:unbound

Interactive Design, Experimental Typography

2025

type:unbound is an interactive event microsite celebrating experimental typography and the designers pushing its boundaries. Developed for an advanced interactive studio course and built in Webflow with custom code, the project explores the tension between structure and chaos, as well as legibility and expression. The site uses responsive layouts, animated type systems, and a customizable type playground to encourage hands-on exploration of typography as an active, evolving medium.

Lagom

Visual Identity, Art Direction

2025

Lagom is the visual identity system for the Fall 2025 Graphic Design & Interactive Media Senior Show, centered on the concept of balance as “just enough.” As lead designer, I defined the conceptual direction of the theme and translated it into a flexible visual system applied across print, digital, and social platforms. Design decisions prioritized balance, constraint, and intentional variation to support a wide range of student work while maintaining cohesion. Deliverables included posters and promotional materials, student portraits, and the design and management of social media content. Together, the system reflects both the meaning of the theme and the collective nature of the exhibition.

Interpreting Terrain

Information Design, Data Visualization

2025

Interpreting Terrain examines how Wisconsin wetlands are seen, measured, and defined through contemporary mapping technologies. As LiDAR-based surveying replaced earlier stereo photo methods, the boundaries of wetlands became denser, more precise, and increasingly abstracted from lived landscape experience. By comparing 2013 and 2023 wetland datasets through layered GIS visualizations, the project highlights how technological shifts reshape environmental knowledge, revealing mapping not as a neutral record of land but as a system that actively determines what becomes visible, legible, and valued.

Systems & Structures

Printmaking, Visual Systems

2025

Systems & Structures is a printmaking collection exploring systems, structure, and disruption through layered processes and material intervention. Influenced by systems aesthetics, generative logic, and mapping practices, the work uses grids and rule-based forms as a foundation, then introduces moments of interference and disruption to reflect how structured systems remain fluid, unstable, and open to interpretation.
