UCI Esports

While working as a graphic designer intern at UCI Esports, I was responsible for supplying weekly match graphics to report on tournaments that our collegiate teams were participating in and creating promotional social, web, and print material for events hosted at our on-campus gaming arena.

I’ve also worked on special projects like directing the apparel design of our 2023-2024 Player Jersey and contributing to the marketing collateral for the University of California Esports Initiative (UCEI) 2023 & 2024 Invitationals.
