La Lanza — Student Newspaper
La Lanza is the student newspaper of Colegio San José in Río Piedras, Puerto Rico, which I led as graphic artist and President/Editor across editions LXIX through LXXIV. The archive spans finished digital spreads for the earlier editions and a full press-ready print magazine for Edición LXXIV (March–May 2021) — cover design, table of contents, editor letters, senior features, and culture stories laid out across draft rounds in Photoshop.

La Lanza — Edition Highlight Reels
A set of animated highlight reels and motion thumbnails recapping La Lanza editions LXIX through LXXII, built to promote each issue on YouTube and social channels. The pieces pair the newspaper’s serif masthead with marbled coral backgrounds, animated section indexes, and music-synced edits — the moving-image companion to the printed magazine.

Class & Club Poster Series
A unified poster series identifying the 11th and 12th grade classes, subjects, and clubs at Colegio San José. Each class poster follows a clean, flat-illustration template: a bold subject title, a single line-icon emblem, and the teacher’s name in a coordinated two-tone palette. Companion club posters extend the same icon-driven system into informational layouts.

NatStuCo Outreach Promotions
A run of event and outreach graphics for the Colegio San José National Student Council, promoting drives, raffles, elections, and activities throughout 2020 — a drive-in cinema, an iPad raffle, movie nights, sports challenges, and elections — all carrying the NatStuCo badge and school crest with high-saturation gradients and bold bilingual headlines.

Appropriation — Remixing Gosha Rubchinskiy
An appropriation and pattern-design study that remixes the camouflage and motif language of Russian fashion designer Gosha Rubchinskiy, presented as a grid of recolored repeat patterns. The piece riffs on Cyrillic typography and post-Soviet streetwear aesthetics, generating a series of variant colorways from a shared camo silhouette.
