Atlantic Council for International Cooperation
The Atlantic Council for International Cooperation (ACIC) is a network promoting global sustainability, social justice, and international partnerships through advocacy, capacity-building, and collaboration in Atlantic Canada.
2024: For this project, I created a visually engaging PDF for the “Our Five Year Outlook” section of their strategic plan. I also designed custom illustrations to bring key sections to life, adding a personal and creative touch to the project.
2025: I was invited to provide an illustration for a postcard as a souvenir for participants in ACIC’s “From Aid to Action” Symposium.
2026: I designed and illustrated a hardcover publication for the PhotoVoices initiative.

I AM FROM:
A PhotoVoices Project
For ACIC’s PhotoVoices project, I designed and illustrated a 42-page hardcover publication bringing together youth photography, personal reflections, and stories exploring themes of gender, history and identity, environment, health and well-being, and social advocacy.
The goal was to create a book that felt cohesive while still allowing each participant’s voice and photography to remain at the centre. I developed the overall visual direction and page layouts, created custom illustrations throughout the publication, and designed each section to have its own character while still feeling like part of one larger story.
I also prepared the final publication for print, taking the project from early layout development through revisions and final production.
