Introducing the Staff

Kenzie Allig and I met in May of 2021 to begin working on a rebrand for Xpress Magazine. Over the course of three months we developed a logo and brand identity for the magazine. In August we launched the rebrand for Xpress and began working on our first issue. For the production of each issue Avery Wilcox, Kenzie and I worked together for the visual elements on final designs for the digital copies of magazine.
