11th Annual Fraser Valley Pride Celebration
Brand Identity
Fraser Valley Pride Celebration, in its 11th year, is an annual festival held in the Fraser Valley. The festival supports Fraser Valley Youth Society, a non-profit group supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ and allied youth in the community. Each year a theme is presented for the festival. 2023's theme was intersectionality; the acknowledgement that everyone has their own unique experiences of discrimination and oppression. The challenge was to create a visual language surrounding this theme for use during the 2023 Pride season with the goal of engaging participants and festival-goers. This project was nominated for a Fraser Valley Cultural Diversity Award in Inclusive Marketing (2024).
Chitkaville Accessible Board Game
UX/UI
Welcome to Chitkaville, a unique board game that evokes inclusivity and empathy.

Players, both sighted and visually impaired, collaborate to navigate tactile game elements and solve challenges together. Through teamwork and shared decision-making, Chitkaville fosters unity and understanding, making it more than just a game—it’s an experience in empathy and cooperation. This project won the UFV Student Research Day Humanities Award.
