CREA Curriculum & Consulting

CREA’s programming guided youth in designing and executing personally meaningful creative projects. As Marketing Design Manager for CREA Curriculum & Consulting, I supported the development of this youth-centered learning program by helping shape the visual identity and communications ecosystem behind the CREA experience. My work blended design, storytelling, and systems thinking to bring the 15-week curriculum to life, making sure each component felt cohesive, engaging, and accessible for educators, students, and community partners.

Curriculum Design & Learning Tools

I led the visual design for CREA’s signature 15-week curriculum—creating a cohesive suite of educational materials used across classrooms and after-school programs.

Each weekly module included:

Branded teacher lesson plans
PowerPoint slide decks
Student worksheets
Supporting tools such as card decks, games, and short-form video assets

Below are the flatlays of the 15-week curriculum.

Worksheets and flyers for the CREA curriculum and workshops.

These materials were designed to enhance clarity, spark creativity, and support educators in delivering hands-on, project-based learning.

Card Decks

I had the opportunity to design two Card Desks during my time with CREA. We partnered with Crafty Fox Art Box and designed a single or multi-player card game deck that is a creativity kickstarter for project ideas while simultaneously exposing learners to art theory and history at the same time.
