MY ROLE

Professor of Design for Magazine and Media Design, Typography I & II, Brand Identity Design & Professional Design Practices

DELIVERABLES

Magazine editorial layouts, publication design systems, experimental typography, and illustrated print projects.

The Constraints

Each student project presented unique constraints — tight deadlines, specific course requirements, and the challenge of developing a personal creative voice while mastering fundamental design principles.

Balancing constraints with creative freedom allowed for intentional experimentation and a stronger portfolio of work that showcased both craft

and concept.

The Process

These projects pushed creative boundaries through experimentation with layout, typography, color, and illustration. From magazine spreads to editorial publications, each piece was crafted with attention to detail and a desire to tell compelling visual stories.

Editorial Foundations

Editorial layouts were developed with a focus on hierarchy, pacing, and typography—building a foundation for clear communication and visual storytelling.

Magazine Editorial Layouts

Magazine spreads were crafted to balance imagery, text, and white space—exploring how pacing and hierarchy guide the reader through a story.

Publication Design & Typography

Publication systems were developed with custom typography, grids, and color palettes—demonstrating how a consistent visual language can elevate content and reinforce a brand.

Results

Academic achievements, a strong portfolio, and a clear creative identity—these projects built the foundation for a professional design career and continue to influence my approach to storytelling and visual craft.
