Taco Bell

Making the In-House the Fun-House.




DESCRIPTION
Working at Taco Bell Design, Taco Bell’s in-house design agency, I’ve had the opportunity to work on multiple touchpoints of the brand. My time at TBD has led me to building retail collections, designing food trucks, re-thinking restaurant interiors and exteriors, developing packaging systems, and crafting the identity and experience of the biggest expression of the brand in it’s history—The Bell hotel.

Currently working with a small team and having fun with shaping the visual tone of the brand through social media.
ROLE
Art Direction, Design, Prop Styling, Illustration
