clothing design
Art is something valued by many people, but clothes are valued by an even larger population. So, would it not make sense that a combination is truly desired? With given opportunities as a student and designer, I have been blessed with the opportunity to create designs for clothing. Some designs have gone on to become tangible wearable art, but regardless of the designs' outcome, I still desire to share what I have created with you.

DIVERSITY EDUCATION
Typically the word diversity if associated with how individuals are unique from one another, but even within each individual, there are diverse aspects that make up how that person defines themselves. Diversity includes ethnicity, generation, socio-economic status, education, spirituality, sexual orientation, religion, family, race, disabilities, nationality, and gender.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH 2018
The Multicultural Center hosted 7 events for Black History Month this year under the theme of "Blacktivism", which "refers to the rigorous and purposeful action taken to bring about social change and justice within the Black community."

SUSTAINABILITY CLUB UTD 2017
It's kind of a logical contradiction to design and order this t-shirt for a club that focuses on not creating more waste, but hey it was fun.

NORTH TEXAS GUARD GAMES 2016
These (mainly) tank-top designs were created for two competitive lifeguard teams, one called Guards of the Round Table, and the other called Top Guard. The team name Guards of the Round Table is a twist on the Knights of the Round Table, members of the stories behind King Arthur. On the other hand, the other team name Top Guard is a twist on Top Gun, a famous drama/action film released in 1986. These two teams competed in the annual Guard Games Event, which is hosted by the North Texas Aquatics Association. At this event, lifeguards in the North Texas region compete in lifeguarding skills which include, but are not limited to, first aid, rescues, knowledge of the lifeguard manual, and fitness.

trent middle school 8th grade shirt: winning design
The graphic images shown portray my submission to Trent Middle School's eighth grade class. The graduating class choose my idea and after a series of adjustments were requested and made, the final design was sent to the shop to be printed. About half a year after I completed this project, I was contacted by my graphic design teacher with some exciting news and this photograph to use as proof to myself that, yes, my idea became a reality. This specific young man actually spent his summer volunteering in Ukraine, which is and was undergoing the effects of the War in Donbass. He not only brought over 700 t-shirts donated by our school district, but he also spent his time teaching children English. My point of sharing? It makes me joyful that not only that this young man has done such amazing things, but also that he apparently liked this shirt so much that he brought it to Ukraine (at least that is what I would like to think).
