The Kindness Project
The Kindness Project is a passion-driven initiative I began in early 2020. On New Year’s Eve 2019, instead of setting typical resolutions like 'exercise more' or 'drink more water' (both great goals!), I resolved to focus on spreading kindness. As a designer, I realized I could create kindness through my craft—using my skills to make a difference.
Little did I know how much 2020 would challenge us all or how meaningful a little kindness could be. And so, The Kindness Project was born.
How does it work?
Each year, I work with a handful of young entrepreneurs offering free design services—typically a custom Brand Identity. Together, we dive deep into their business goals, aspirations, and visual style to craft tailored brand standards, completely free of charge.
In return, I ask for just one thing: a promise to 'pay it forward' with a random act of kindness, no matter how big or small.

Eligibility requirements
In order to be considered for the kindness project, the candidate must be a young entrepreneur who is the sole proprietor of their endeavor. (Certain non-profits may be exempt from this rule)
The Kindness Project is here to help those just starting out who might not have the budget for professional design services. To ensure we reach those who need it most, only individuals who are not currently working with a designer or marketing professional will be considered.
This is a free service I provide in my spare time outside of my day job. Because of this, I ask for flexibility with your timeline, as creating something meaningful takes time to get just right.
I reserve the right to feature your project here on my portfolio website
