A culture magazine for the global IBM community

From 2017-2020, I was a contributor to IBM’s Variable Magazine. As a member of the core team, I contributed to issues through
illustration, print design and determining content. Over the years, Variable has become a core part of IBM’s design culture, and has helped create a sense of global community. When I moved to the Astor studio, I had the unique opportunity to get more NYC designers involved in the magazine. 

Working on Variable was one of the most unique projects I’ve gotten to work on as a designer, and I cherish the work and community the design and editorial team helped build!
