Projects
Brand Manual/Rebranding
As brand designer, I took on the leading role in facilitating the rebranding process. I researched, designed, and edited the new brand manual that would guide alignment across all platforms, media, and merchandising.
The rebranding process also included designing the new CKH Group logo, creating assets for use across the firm, animating new logo reveals, and developing rebranded merchandise. Merchandise included business cards, pamphlets, bookmarks, mousepads, notebooks, lanyards, masks, and more.
To announce the rebranding both internally and externally, I also animated a motion graphics video touching on the key aspects of our new branding and brand manual.
After the rebranding I continue to advise employees on the correct branding process and how to keep consistent document alignment
Monthly Magazine
A change that was implemented and facilitated by the marketing team was creating a new, unified magazine in line with CKH's new branding.
I was the lead designer of the magazine, editing the template and overall look that would be used for future magazines. After the initial establishment of overall composition, I continue to create each month's magazine in line with this branding.
This magazine now runs over 30 pages, has contributions from six global offices as well as the Atlanta headquarters. The magazine features photo competitions, passages from our partners, advertisements, and local cuisine.
This new change has had overwhelming positive response from the firm and continues to receive support from the partners.

Onboarding Video
This onboarding video required mass cross-department collaboration. I directed the filming, scripted it, edited the footage, and created this extensive onboarding video using both Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. This project was extremely well received and led to the further development of an entire Onboarding Course via Litmos, our online learning platform.
