Voyage Magazine @ The UW
As Design Lead for Voyage Magazine, I managed and worked along side a group of layout designers. I was responsible for designing the overall structure and visual identity of the 2026 magazine edition, Roots, as well as creating custom illustrations that aligned with the established magazine motif. I designed a handful of spreads, edited my teams’ work, and prepared the magazine for print.
