My Personal Brand

Empathy-Driven Design

I prioritize the human experience across every medium—whether you're designing a digital interface, a brand identity, or an environmental space. I value listening, observing, and responding to the needs of users or audiences, and your process is rooted in thoughtful problem-solving.

Purposeful Visual Communication

Whether it’s through branding, UX/UI, illustration, or advertising, I design with clarity and intention. My visual work is supported by narrative and strategy, and I know how to craft designs that speak directly to their audience, with a sense of meaning and personality.

Cross-Disciplinary Thinking

My foundation in architecture gives me a unique lens through which I approach design: one that sees form, structure, and function as interconnected. I bring this systems-level thinking to your graphic design work, allowing me to move fluidly between physical and digital, 2D and 3D, static and interactive.

Statement Designs

Afrobeats Music Festival
Brand Identity

This Afrobeats music festival branding project reflects my love for the genre’s vibrant energy and cultural roots. I designed a bold logo, mascot, typography, and color palette inspired by African textiles and urban art to capture the rhythm, joy, and community spirit of Afrobeats across dynamic mockups.

Three colorful posters advertising Afrobeat music events are hanging on a brick wall. The first poster promotes an Afrobeat music festival with a hand holding a drum surrounded by musical notes. The second poster promotes Afrobeats with a map outline and text encouraging attendees to join for a night of music in the house. The third poster highlights Afrobeat fun, music, and soul, with a butterfly-shaped design and musical notes.
