The Collegian

Student Newspaper at Colorado State University
2018 - 2021

As Design Director of The Collegian, I showcased my skills in publication design on a public platform for the purpose of good, impactful, and truthful journalism. In this position I managed and lead my team of 13 creatives, art directed and created engaging cover designs, and influenced the visual impact of interior spreads through use of type, imagery and graphics. Throughout my 3 years of working with The Collegian I solely redesigned the printed paper and website, and launched a special edition series that still continues today.
