We collaborated with April to conceive and design a brand identity and website that would exude her personality and allow her personal brand to continue its impressive rise.
April's singular character, her grace coupled with her passion, and her Jamaican heritage were all key factors to be incorporated into the design.

The Doctor Bird
We spoke at length with April because we wanted to learn…
We wanted to understand what she was about, what motivated her, what her goals were and what was important to her.
We guided her through our process so that, together, we could Define her brand, Align it with visual and the Design it with strategy and intent.
With April's proud Jamaican heritage, we dived into a little research and discovered that the scissor-tailed hummingbird - or Doctor Bird - is that National Bird of Jamaica.
We incorporated that with April's initials, AJ, to create a strong but feminine mark that incorporated the Doctor Bird within the design.

We used a vibrant colour palette to include the energetic and passionate elements of April's personality, while retaining femininity with lighter accent tones.
