Snarky Tea Email Design

Designed email campaigns for new product launches, including the limited-edition summer blends and collections. The email designs incorporated:

•Bright, tropical color schemes and playful typography to evoke a sense of fun and adventure, inviting customers to “Sip on Paradise.”

•A mobile-first approach with responsive layouts to ensure a seamless experience across all devices.

•Clear call-to-action buttons to guide users through shopping new arrivals and signing up for promotions like the “Tea of the Month Club.”

This project involved aligning Snarky Tea’s visual identity across multiple touchpoints to create a cohesive brand experience that resonates with their target audience.

Snarky Tea Packaging Redesign

This packaging redesign focused on evolving Snarky Tea’s bold, playful identity into a more cohesive and modern visual system across flavors.

The project involved reworking layout structure, typography, and ingredient imagery to improve hierarchy, readability, and shelf presence while keeping the brand’s personality intact. Nutritional information, brewing instructions, and supporting details were reorganized into a clearer, more consistent format across the full product line.

The result is a packaging system that feels fresh, unified, and easier for customers to navigate while remaining unmistakably Snarky Tea.

The result is a unified product experience that balances clarity, playfulness, and functional design across the entire app.

HELIO MUSIC AND ART FESTIVAL EVENT BRANDING

Helio Music and Art Festival revolves around the concept of "fun in the sun." The brand imagery is a humorous take on what really happens at music festivals. I play with scale and take objects that are typically small and enlarge them while making larger objects smaller, which adds to the festival’s youthful and playful voice

Animal Collective Collector's Vinyl Set

Animal Collective is a psychedelic indie band whose music is tough to describe, however this three part vinyl collector’s set represents the group’s eclectic sound visually. Although each album is unique, a sense of cohesion is made apparent through its usage of consistently brightcolors with solid black images laid on top. Each album cover is accompanied by individually designed record labels that match the colored vinyl to each respective album to keep each record organized in a visual way. All three pieces are packaged together in a box with the hand-lettered band name in solid white text to contrast the colorful surprise the consumer will find inside.

Grateful Dead Clock

A psychedelic removable clockface design is reminiscent of vintage Grateful Dead gig posters. This design is inserted into a hand-sculpted skull.
