The Foundry
Lufkin, Texas
During my collegiate studies, I secured a contract to redesign the logo and overall branding for The Foundry Assembly of God. This project provided a valuable opportunity to apply my design expertise to a real-world client. It resulted in a modernized visual identity that effectively communicated the organization's mission and values to its members. The project involved close collaboration with the church leadership to understand their goals and create a design that resonated with their community.
This sleek and modern logo and wordmark, feature a crucible pouring molten metal into the letter you. This signifies The Foundry's goal to pour into their congregation and disciple their people through spiritual refining.
Subsequent to developing the church's new branding, I assumed a role within their youth ministry focused on strategic communications.

The Bridge
Zavalla, Texas
I had the opportunity to develop the logo and brand identity for The Bridge, a startup church in Zavalla, Texas. The church's mission, "The Bridge strives to be The Bridge between where people are, and where God has called them to be," served as the guiding principle for the design. To visually represent this mission, I created a stylized illustration of the Zavalla bridge—a recognizable local landmark—as the logo, symbolizing the transformative journey the church facilitates.
