a compilation of my mini projects

too important to be left off of my portfolio

I’ve been a marketing student for almost half a decade, creating countless decks, flyers, ads, strategies, and concepts along the way. While not every project belongs in a portfolio on its own, these stood out as moments where my thinking sharpened — where research turned into insight, insight into strategy, and strategy into something tangible. Together, they reflect how I approach marketing: grounded in context, curious about people, and focused on making ideas work in the real world.
