📓 Project Overview

For Kat Von D Beauty, I worked on a wide range of cosmetic packaging and marketing assets across multiple product lines, helping translate bold creative direction into print-ready, production accurate packaging systems.

The work required a deep understanding of brand standards, typography, materials, and print finishes. It also involved close collaboration with designers, copywriters, producers, and print vendors to ensure consistency and quality at scale, while aligning creative intent, production constraints, and executive feedback within fast-moving timelines.
