Description
In this class I’m thrilled to share my Overarching Brand Visuals process with you that has allowed me to sustain a virtually 100% approval rate from clients, for the last 3 years and over 20 major rebrand projects.
My process is a result of more than a decade of tweaking and strengthening my approach to designing and presenting logos and identities. I have stopped having to defend designs for individual items, or nitpick at a logo, because I focus on delivering Overarching Brand Visuals that support a cohesive Brand Story.
If you’ve ever presented logo options to a client only to receive criticism or confusion, or go through an insane amount of revisions for something as basic as a business card, then this class is for you.
In some of my previous classes I focused on providing a lot of theoretical knowledge behind approaching design work.
However I want to shift gears a little and focus on the practical side of creating visuals for a brand.
I invite you to go behind the scenes with me and see how I put together concept visuals for a real client of mine, while I talk you through my thought process.

Instructor
I wear many hats. From brand design and strategy to user interface and website design, I am what some might say a unicorn. I thrive on mastering different aspects of design and branding to bring the creative energy required to solve problems and innovate.
But do you know what really lights me up? Being a part of your journey to build and grow something that you and others will love. Whether that’s building your own brand, designing a logo or creating something new as a designer, or developing your creativity skills to help you reach higher goals.
