The multi-faceted app offers 24/7 access to medical experts and parenting professionals including pediatricians, OBs, doulas, nurses, lactation and sleep consultants, speech pathologists and mental health therapists. There is also a groundbreaking AI chat feature called ParentGPT that provides instant answers to any parenting question, and then connects users to relevant Oath experts and related posts from other parents for further input. Finally, there’s a dynamic community of real parents who also post and respond on the app to offer shared experiences and solidarity. I contracted with Oath during their startup phase to update brand and marketing assets including a responsive website refresh, ParentGPT brand development with logo and user/bot chat icons, an original set of parenting-themed emojis that include a giggling baby and “cute” poop, and Google Play and Apple App Store assets including multi-device app icons and product screenshots. Additional items included pitch deck designs, reports, infographics, and ads for social media. graphicdesigner branding webdesigner designer illustrator logoWWOath Care is a parenting startup app devoted to reducing stress for parents.

I also developed coordinating logos for four of their subsidiary programs. I designed an in-depth Brand Visual Identity Guide Book to help the foundation keep their logo and materials consistent across all channels. In 2018, the organization marked their 10-year anniversary with a year-long celebration honoring their organization’s mission and success. I developed a splash-themed anniversary mark for them and redesigned their 250-page IM Program Guide. I also worked with them to design a new, poolside In Water Training Manual laying out their signature swim training techniques for instructors that features our original illustrations of pool exercises. logo graphicdesigner branding designer illustratorWWI worked with global nonprofit, Michael Phelps Foundation to design a new logo that represents their renewed focus on water safety, pathways to growth and success, and introduces a new focus on mental health.

For their inaugural event, “Tee It Up”, guests and sponsors gather in Arizona with Michael Phelps for a day of incredible golf, great conversation, food, drink, and fantastic music for a life-saving cause. Having developed the Foundation’s brand identity, I was tasked with designing the Phelps + Friends brand and secondary event identity in a manner that related to the organization’s visuals, but also tied in the event’s desert location and golf focus. I worked with the client to craft a color palette that built upon the green and midnight shades from the MPF’s brand identity with desert-inspired earth tones. I turned the water-inspired “swoosh” from the MPF icon into a sunset. I also hand-drew the primary typographic lockup to give the brand a personal, distinct look and utilized MPF’s primary typeface for secondary text. The final elements included the family of logo designs, an event website, sponsor pitch presentation deck, digital invitation, social media graphics, and branded swag and signage. I hand-drew the custom icons for the event agenda to coordinate with elements from the brand from the “swoosh” in the cocktail to the details on the guitar matching those of Eric Church, the musician playing at the event. logo graphicdesigner branding webdesigner designer illustratorWWPhelps + Friends is nonprofit organization Michael Phelps Foundation’s (MPF) premiere fundraising initiative.

Rather than traditional tactics that use shame and judgement to emphasize body size as a measurement of success, Feel Strong is shifting the narrative around exercise to making everyone feel empowered and strong. The movement connects people to an online community that includes empowering social media messaging, reels, and resources, including a directory of gyms and fitness programs that are committed to making their space comfortable for all people to join. I worked with founder and coach, Stacy Kim to bring her brand vision to life, designing the primary logo lockup with a fresh, approachable typography system and punchy color palette, as well as developing a family of secondary logos that extend the brand identity to various digital media and swag. logo graphicdesigner illustrator branding designerWWFeel Strong Movement is a new initiative for women who want to see the focus of fitness change.
