Indigenous DESIGNER BIO
I’m Owen, a graphic designer passionate about creating visually stunning, meaningful designs that connect with people. I thrive on crafting detailed projects that tell stories and bring ideas to life. From logos to digital layouts, I aim to design work that’s creative, approachable, and impactful.
Outside of design, I love experimenting with different forms of art, from acrylic paint to charcoal. I also enjoy diving into mystery novels or listening to true crime podcasts, which fuel my curiosity and inspire my creativity. I’m always looking to push boundaries and collaborate on projects that leave a lasting impression.

Interaction Design IV
Objective
To create a mental well-being app that supports all users by reducing overwhelm, improving focus, and encouraging long-term habit building through adaptable routines and personalized features.
Description
BrighTrack’s pastel palette, rounded UI, and customizable design create a calming, user-friendly experience. Gentle reminders, progress tracking, and a digital check-in buddy support motivation and well-being.

Brand Identity Design I
Objective
To design a logo for Student Specs’ e-commerce website, creating a strong, student-focused brand identity used across social media, advertising, and packaging. Targeting budget-conscious college students (18-28), Student Specs eliminates retail markups by producing and shipping glasses directly, making quality eyewear more affordable. The redesign aims to boost recognition, engagement, and sales, positioning Student Specs as a top choice for budget-friendly prescription glasses.
Description
The final concept introduces an owl mascot to symbolize wisdom and knowledge while seamlessly integrating glasses into its features for stronger brand recognition. A vibrant orange duotone palette creates an inviting and memorable identity. The website aligns with the logo, incorporating geometric and rounded elements, good contrast, and a structured layout for a seamless user experience. Key features like outlined category cards and a modern font pairing enhance readability and product discoverability. This refined branding makes Student Specs more engaging, relatable, and recognizable, reinforcing its mission to provide stylish, budget-friendly eyewear for students.
