ABIGAIL WHITE
Hi there! I'm Abby, set to graduate from the University of Kansas in May, with a keen interest in branding, type design, and creating immersive experiences. Outside of design, I love exploring new foods, expanding my wardrobe, and diving into a good book. I'm always up for a cup of coffee, so feel free to reach out if you want to chat and discuss all things design!
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
*Graduation May 2024
*4.0 GPA
*Academic Achievement Award
TDK AWARD RECIPIENT 2024
Chosen at The Design Kids awards as having one of the top portfolios from around the world. Humbled to be recognized by some of the design industry’s top leaders.
“It’s a really hard thing to balance design that feels contemporary while also being commercial. Abigail’s work is incredibly well-crafted while having a sense of energy. She has found a way to make a paper clip packaging exciting and modern, a speakeasy feel not tired, and a meal delivery service look chic. That’s not easy to do. Bravo.”
