Sex Ed is a Racial Justice Issue booklet
During my time at the Texas Freedom Network and Texas Rising, I designed and illustrated a booklet about the complicated history of Sex Education in Texas, and the steps needed to help implement effective and culturally appropriate curriculum.
After consulting with the comms team about visual direction based on their messaging, I helped edit the copy for this booklet and then got to designing. I worked collaboratively with the comms team, leadership, and even the board on 10 rounds of design. The booklet was then printed and distributed at actions around Texas during the SBOE (State Board Of Education) session.
Project Walkthrough: Texas Rising: Logo + Brand Refresh
Logo redesign for youth-focused political advocacy group: Texas Rising.
Texas Rising works to empower, educate, and engage young people under 30 in their political processes with a focus on serving communities of color. Their work covers a range of issues including LGBTQ+ rights, voting rights, and environmental justice.
A need arose in the brand for better iconography - a logo option that didn’t involve lots of words and that would read younger and
more appealing to their target audience. Something that fits the scrappy, young, and fresh vibes that Texas Rising is aiming to radiate.

Design Process
Re-branding a historic nonprofit agency isn’t an easy task! Over the course of three months, I worked closely with leadership, creative teams, and even the board to get this re-design from concept to application! Then, work began on a suite of profile picture icons and custom assets for each chapter of Texas Rising- who is present on over 25 college campuses around Texas spreading their message of Voter Rights and Advocacy.
