Graphic designer and storyteller



Being Gay is the End of the World:
Creating Perspective through Graphic Storytelling

BFA Thesis, 2024
Mixed Media Interactive Exhibit
Washington, D.C., USA
Graphic design is a fundamental building block of our chaotic and inherently irrational world. The collection of these designs seen in objects and artificial environments tells the story of humanity in the past, present, and future. This project is an examination of the absurdities and paradoxes of modern life, as well as the power of design to articulate a story through the manipulation of perception. Graphic design not only works as a tool to create authentic culture and history, but it also allows me to rewrite the truth through satire and exaggeration to paint a grander, sillier, and more pointed perspective of the world.
