My Story

From sketching
to screens.

I’ve always loved making things look good. Even when I was younger, I naturally noticed shapes, balance, and how things fit together before I even knew what graphic design was.

How I started

That natural curiosity turned into a real career. Over the past two years, I’ve worked as a freelance sketch artist, graphic designer, and web developer. I take my love for art and turn it into working websites and brand designs.

Why I do it

Design just makes sense to me, and I honestly love the process of building things from scratch. Every project is a chance to take an idea and turn it into something people actually enjoy looking at and using.

Section 01 — Branding

Visual Identity

Reimagining the heritage of Benner Tea Co. through a structural lens. Distilling legacy into a precise, narrative-driven visual identity system.

01 — Project

Benner
Tea Co.

Full brand identity redesign — logo, colour palette, typography, and packaging system.

02 / Problem

No clear visual identity.
No brand recognition.

The existing brand had no consistent colour system, no defined typeface, and packaging that looked like every other tea on the shelf. It needed a complete visual overhaul.

03 / Direction

Clean. Minimal.
Built to stand out.

The goal was a restrained visual system — flat layout, earthy palette, strong type hierarchy — that feels premium without being loud.

04 / Design Decisions

What the system needed:

Logo

Wordmark with clean geometry. Timeless, not trendy.

Colour

Earthy neutrals. Warm tones that read as natural and premium.

Type

Serif for personality. Sans-serif for body. Clear hierarchy.

Target: younger audience without losing existing customers.

05 / Approach

Strip it back.
Make it count.

Removed all visual clutter. Every element — layout, spacing, colour, type — was chosen with purpose. Nothing decorative that doesn't serve the brand.

06 / Deliverables

Logo System

Primary mark, secondary lockup, and monogram. Light and dark versions.

Colour Palette

6-colour system. Primary, secondary, and neutral tones with usage rules.

Type System

2 typefaces. Heading, subheading, and body styles defined across all formats.

07 / Result

A complete brand system — ready across print, packaging, and digital.

29-page brand guidelines document. Full mockup set included.

02 — Project

Luke's
Iced Coffee

Targeted collateral design — logo, menu layout, business cards, and packaging system.

02 / Problem

Outdated collateral.
Low shelf impact.

Luke's had a great product, but their touchpoints — packaging, menus, and business cards — failed to communicate what made them unique. The logo lacked legibility, and the physical items didn't feel cohesive.

03 / Direction

Young. Bold.
High contrast.

The goal was to redesign specific core assets to appeal to a Gen-Z and student demographic. Every delivered piece needed to feel punchy, modern, and instantly recognizable.

04 / Design Decisions

What the system needed:

Logo

Bold wordmark. Confident and legible on small labels.

Menu & Print

Clear typographic hierarchy. Functional business cards.

Packaging

High-impact layout rules that work across cups and cans.

Target: Gen-Z and students. Everyday product, premium feel.

05 / Approach

High contrast.
High energy.

Kept the design expressive but controlled. Strong type hierarchy, a two-tone palette, and clean layout rules that work across cups, packaging, and digital.

06 / Deliverables

Logo Design

Primary wordmark and lockup variations.

Print Assets

Menu layout and two-sided business cards.

Packaging

Cup designs and retail product packaging.

07 / Result

Targeted deliverables ready for production.

Logo files, print-ready menus, business cards, and packaging mechanicals delivered.

Colour Palette

Warmth & Cold.

Two opposing tones — coffee brown and iced blue — create the core tension of the brand. Minimal palette, maximum recognition.
