Smiling Dino

I owe much of my creative journey to the open-ended play my parents encouraged for me and my siblings as children. With just blocks or big sheet of paper, the possibilities felt endless. Inspired by that spirit of imagination, I collaborated with a team of Cal Poly packaging students to create Smiling Dino, a snack brand designed to promote both healthy eating and playful engagement. I led the package design and brand identity, while my teammates focused on structural design and materials. The final product features three dinosaur-themed variations, each tailored to a specific snack, blending functionality and fun to captivate young audiences.
