Cultivating Visual Stories Through Design.
The founders of Tater approached me to create the look & feel of they snack company’s brand. We worked collaboratively to make sure their vision for their product came to life. An initial moodboard was sent my way & I was able to curate the perfect vibe for the brand.
I designed the logo and brand identity for the brand and delivered a fleshed out brand book that included photography direction, initial packaging and website design.

Licensed Producer, Galaxie, launched a net new recreational cannabis brand. We (Sister Merci) built their brand from the ground up. Inspired by the White Claw model, we created Cruuzy, a visually exciting brand with an effortless, youthful energy but open to audience interpretation. Is it California cool? Is it a skateboard company? Or is it just a vibe?
Brand work consisted of creating a brand guideline, developing social, directing photography, creating in-store displays and budtender sellsheets & illustrating different assets.

2021
Created a refreshed look & logo for a brick-and-mortar in person gaming & BINGO centre. These centers are embedded in their communities and have tight-knit groups of loyal customers, so there was a careful balance of inviting in new customers while ensuring the regulars still feel just as welcome.
Curious risk takers who came to win while visiting a Jackpot Time center, ultimately stayed for the community we created, demonstrating that we were more than just gambling and that the connections formed in the centers were genuine and lasting.
Deliverables included, logo, brand book, uniform designs, poster ads, and step & repeat.
