the cycle of poverty leaves families with no hopefor a better life. raising goats not only provides

employment and an income, it also provides anew hope and a new way of life.

by teaching our goat raisers how to grow their own food, they are able to feed their families like never before. productive agriculture provides healthy and accessible food as well as produce for the market.

one goat can fund a child’s education from gradeschool through college. as the child grows so does

the population and the output of their goats. educating the youth of a culture provides long-term

benefits for the country as a whole.

A series of three posters designed for a public service announcement for the Give A Goat foundation.

In design school, identity design is all about the form of the logo. A student will be given the problem: “design a logo for such and such organization,” and then the student may spend the better part of the next

and hopefully when the student becomes a professional he/she will learn to get fast at it, and achieve that work in the course of a week as opposed to six months. And there, any similarity between real identity design and a design school exercise ends.

Identity design, for any organization containing more than three people, is the act of diplomatically negotiating personal egos, tastes, and aspirations of various invested individuals against their business needs, their pre-formed expectations, and the constraints of the market place. Making something formalistically beautiful, while desirable, is a more private part of the process, something that the designer needs to achieve incidentally, not something that can appear to be an overt motivating

Another thing they don’t teach you in design school is what you get paid for.

My passion for graphic design started back when I was a little girl. I have always been mesmerized by the beauty of color and line. In college, I realized what I loved was a profession and I want to help others through design.

As a designer, I want to give back to others what I have been given. I design because my gracious Creator has blessed me with this talent and I strive to use it to my best ability. I will glorify Him through every type of media and proclaim His fame throughout the earth with my designs.
