A limited-release zine for people to learn about foods they may not know about and also instill pride and excitement in those who do. The zine is a collection of art, recipes, interviews, and more.
I created this zine for The Infatuation to address how cuisines from all parts of the world are marginalized in food media and give POC the space to celebrate foods important to them.

We partnered with Nike to promote the launch of their new line of sneakers designed for the “reluctant runner.” Because not everyone’s in it for the runner’s high. Some of us are in it for the ice cream. We created a series of run guides for people to find where to eat after a run, followed by in-store activations and a pop-up cafe produced by Something Special Studios.
