Project
GradLife redesign
Moving beyond the portrait-focused approach of previous editions, I redesigned the publication with a dynamic mix of profile photography, conceptual imagery, and expressive typography to create a more engaging narrative. The cover keeps a people-centric focus, while reimagining the internal spreads with more interpretive, visually driven storytelling. My role covered the full process from competitor analysis and concept development to art direction and final execution.
