Branding
Foundry Student Ministry
The branding for Foundry Students Ministry brings energy and character to life through "Rusty," a retro-inspired anvil icon that feels both strong and approachable. Staying true to Foundry’s identity, the design keeps the signature rust orange and metal grey palette, tying the ministry to the larger church family. Rusty represents resilience, growth, and a sense of belonging — a playful yet meaningful symbol for students forging their faith and friendships together.

Meet Rusty the Anvil
Foundry Students’ strong, steady, and always-smiling mascot. Rusty’s the kind of guy who’s built tough but has a big heart. He represents growth through challenge, the power of community, and a reminder that faith is forged, not faked. Whether you’re new or a regular, Rusty’s here to say, “Iron sharpens iron—and we’re stronger together.”



The Merch
Foundry Students Ministry merch brings energy and identity to life through “Rusty,” the retro-inspired anvil icon. Featuring the signature rust orange and metal grey palette, each piece reflects strength, growth, and community — a symbol of students forging faith and friendships together.
Foundry Childrens Ministry
For the Foundry Children's Ministry rebrand, I focused on creating a cohesive yet distinctive identity for each branch of the ministry. My goal was to design icons that kids could connect with while establishing a clear visual distinction between younger and older age groups. By maintaining consistent branding colors across all icons, I ensured unity, while incorporating the church’s established type and thematic elements for a seamless integration with their overall identity. These icons will be featured on merchandise such as t-shirts, onesies, and journals, as well as wall decals and various publications, enhancing both engagement and brand recognition.

The Merch
The Foundry Kids merch was designed with both purpose and playfulness in mind. Dark-colored volunteer t-shirts keep things practical for the fun (and messes) of kids' ministry, while still feeling cheerful and on-brand. A soft, custom onesie welcomes new babies to the church family — a sweet and thoughtful touch that reflects the heart of Foundry’s commitment to every age and stage.

Kansas State Gardens
150th Anniversary
For the 150th anniversary of the Kansas State University Gardens, a commemorative logo was created to honor the gardens’ long-standing history while celebrating the future ahead. The design draws inspiration from the swoosh element in the Friends of the Gardens logo, which is echoed in the anniversary mark. Staying within K-State brand standards, Adobe Caslon served as the foundation for the “150,” with added embellishments and refinements to create a sense of elegance and distinction. The icon at the top incorporates a piece of the Friends of the Gardens logo, tying the design back to its roots while marking this important milestone.
The Color Palette
The color palette is inspired by the original Friends of the Gardens icon, incorporating its familiar tones along with classic K-State brand purple to honor tradition and create a cohesive, refreshed look.

This pair of postage stamp–style illustrations shows a sage, world-weary strawberry on the phone with a younger strawberry.
