MWLI Program Book: Branding | Print

Commencement Program Book

The Maria Whelan Leadership Institute’s first commencement fellowship luncheon required comprehensive branding and a program book, executed under significant time and staffing strain. My focus was to create an elevated program book, transforming it into a commemorative keepsake for graduates and their families. The final design successfully conveyed the professional significance of the new leadership, advocacy, and system change skills achieved by these mid-level early childhood professionals.
