ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW HORIZONS
Since launching in March 2020, I have established an account for custom clothing designs within Animal Crossing: New Horizons. These designs garnered projects with Gillette Venus, Netflix, and Tommy Hilfiger to help create downloadable designs in-game.
GILLETTE VENUS: SKINCLUSIVE SUMMER LINE
I worked closely with Venus and Grey to create a Summer Skinclusive line to bring awareness and representation to different skin types. I designed and created over 250 designs to depict 19 skin types in every in-game skin tone. The collection culminated in a summer livestream event of actresses, influencers, and gamers who shared their own skin stories while showing off the collection.
TOMMY HILFIGER: TOMMY FOREST
I translated over 30 real-life designs into Animal Crossing and designed virtual avatars to represent a group of influencers for a promotional shoot for "Tommy Forest"— an in-game custom holiday event partnered with Eco-Age to plant real trees for every virtual one planted.

NETFLIX: ENOLA HOLMES
I re-created costumes and graphics with an additional in-game designer, Kaylee Yang, for an interactive island to promote the film Enola Holmes. I additionally created illustrated graphics to advertise the designs and island.
