Promoting financial literacy and youth education.

Since 2011, while I was still in my undergraduate studies, I have worked directly with the Economic Awareness Council to design various marketing materials and other projects aimed at promoting and spreading financial knowledge within the Chicago Area.

From annual programs to board games and magazines, the projects I have worked on always challenge me to renew and refresh the design potential.

On the Money Magazine

One of my favorite on-going projects is the the On the Money Magazine. The Economic Awareness Council's youth magazine is produced quarterly and distributed to dozens of Chicago area schools. The content is written by public school interns, aimed at promoting financial literacy and increasing knowledge about college opportunities for the local youth.

Each issue is also posted online at https://www.onthemoneymagazine.org/magazines

GetMyPaymentIL.com Site redesign

In partnership with New America Foundation, the Economic Awareness Council formed the Get My Payment Illinois Coalition to spread information about stimulus payments and tax filing. This project included a potential redesign of their current website to make it more readable and visual appealing.

I created each page mockup in Photoshop as a way to show new placement of logos, navigation, and other elements as part of the design.
