Da Local Boy Branding

January - May 2026

Da Local Boy is a Hawaiian-fusion restaurant located in Highwood and Chicago, IL. They have been recognized as a NYT Top 25 Restaurant in Chicago and in the Chicago suburbs. I created new brand collateral for the grand opening of the Chicago location in collaboration with the owners and emphasized the restaurant’s warm, tropical Hawaiian energy.

Brand Design
Sweet.Milk Branding

July 2026

As a personal project, I made Sweet.Milk, a milk brand that prides itself with humanely farmed whole milk, where their cows live their best lives. I created the logo, carton design, and poster.

The idea of this brand is the result of the arising concern over the widespread normalization of foods with unknown origins and unpronouncable ingredients. Sweet.Milk goes against the grain.

Book Jacket Design
Death Note Series

March 2026

I redesigned the manga cover of Death Note. I wanted to capture the story’s religious undertones and tie them directly with the characters in the story through a grungy, gothic design to match the story.

Editorial Design
How Pokemon Conquered America

January 2026

I made an editorial design of the article “How Pokemon Conquered America.” I fused together Pokemon’s nostalgic pixel sprites with vibrant colored environments to create colorful compositions, beautiful enough to collect and hang on your wall. Each spread, although different in color, is united through its pixelated style and progressive time-of-day scenery.

Book Jacket Design
Strange PicturesOctober 2025

To encapsulate Strange Pictures’ uneasy and dreadful story in a more contemporary way, I redesigned the book cover with dark colors and piercing yellows. I used a facial illustration from the book as an overlay on the book title to create visual interest with its bizarre iconography.

Brand Design
Ida’s Artisan Ice Cream & TreatsSeptember 2025

I redesigned the logo and business card for Ida’s Artisan Ice Cream & Treats, a Chicago Black-Owned Ice Cream shop dedicated to bringing together community. I wanted to emphasize the bright and bubbly nature of Ida’s brand, so I used sweet colors and fun typography to add decorative flair to the brand.
