Cookbooks highlights two long-form editorial projects that blend my love for design, storytelling, and food.

The first, the SLC Cookbook, was created for McCann Worldgroup’s Global Strategic Leadership Committee during the summer of 2020. With the pandemic cancelling their annual summit, I designed a 200+ page cookbook that brought the global team together through shared recipes, family photos, and personal memories. Using a clean, minimal layout and soft, muted colors, the book let their stories take the lead – becoming a heartfelt keepsake that connected the group during a moment of isolation.

The second cookbook, America’s Bounty, was my senior capstone project – a vibrant, fully illustrated exploration of all 50 states and the produce that defines them. Each section features original illustrations, favorite recipes, and educational details around each state’s signature fruit or vegetable. The design pairs bold color with simple, clear typography, allowing the illustrations to shine.
