The University of Texas at Austin

Helping big ideas wear boots


We partnered with Discovery to Impact, UT’s tech commercialization program, to launch a new era for the brand — spotlighting how the university moves breakthroughs from lab to life. I co-led project strategy, shaping a bold new identity that blends world-changing ambition with a strong sense of place and personality. This foundation evolved into a new website and anthem video, which I helped bring to life in close collaboration with our creative team.
