My Role:
From Idea to Identity
The Creative Process
*Note: Neither I nor The Client are artistically gifted.*
🧠 The Client provided concepts, themes, and iconography as references.
💻 I conducted independent research to better understand the desired aesthetic.
🤖 I then prompted AI Assistant "Z", to develop initial concepts.
🗣️ "Z" and I went through several rounds of feedback with The Client to arrive at their approved designs.

"Poncho" is a character I developed previously that the client was a fan of, but we ultimately moved away from the character in later designs.

This design was a variation of the Poncho character, but was ultimately scrapped.

This logo was an immediate favorite since it combined island imagery and the green flash effect in a clean design.

The monogram logo began as a slightly different version with a sunburst, but was toned down to this current iteration at the client's request.
Designing for Application




GFLLC Storefront: Outcomes & Takeaways
What I perceived as a favor for a friend and contemporary became an excellent opportunity to learn, collaborate, and create in a way I hadn't considered before.
Leveraging AI as a creative tool allowed me to develop initial concepts, explore ideas, and apply client feedback while minimizing turnaround time.
Creating the storefront was an opportunity to learn a new platform, design products, and demonstrate my understanding of the client's feedback by helping them to bring their ideas to life.
The storefront going live was extremely satisfying, but it was a real treat to send the client sample merch for a quality control review. While the majority of the feedback was positive, there were some issues that will be addressed in future meetings.
I'm thankful to be trusted with the branding of a company and proud of what we've created.
