Publication Design | Vision Zero Network

Vision Zero Network is a national nonprofit working to eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries while advancing safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all.

I’ve partnered with the organization on report design that helps complex, data-heavy information feel clear, approachable, and useful. My role has included layout and visual design, creating graphics and charts, and advising on how to structure and communicate information for a broad audience of advocates, policymakers, and practitioners. Beyond aesthetics, I focus on helping reports tell a cohesive story, guiding how data, narrative, and visuals work together so key insights are easy to understand, share, and act on.

Website Strategy & Design | Local Motion

Local Motion works to advance safe, accessible walking, biking, and transit across Missouri communities.

Banjo Creative conceptualized and created new websites for Local Motion and one of its initiatives, CoMo Livable Streets, facilitating strategy sessions, developing structure and webpage designs, collaborating with staff, and supporting a developer through the build to ensure the final sites reflected the organization’s mission and goals.

Creative Content Production | Missouri Folk Arts

Missouri Folk Arts, a partnership between the Missouri Arts Council and the University of Missouri in Columbia, supports the preservation and celebration of Missouri’s living folk and traditional arts.

Banjo Creative has provided graphic and video support for the program’s Show Me Folk initiative, Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Program, and Living Traditions Fellowship, creating visual and storytelling materials that elevate artists’ work and make programs accessible to broad audiences. We have also designed display cases (2024, 2025, and 2026) for the entrance of the University of Missouri Museum of Art and Archaeology, translating traditional arts programming into engaging, public-facing exhibits.

Stategic Communications | Columinate

Columinate is a worker-owned market research cooperative that helps organizations better understand their audiences and make informed decisions.

Rachel served as a contract marketing coordinator, acting as the organization’s sole marketing support and providing cross-organizational strategic communications assistance. Our work included writing and editing content for the website and social media, creating graphics for web and social, promoting events, supporting consultants across the cooperative, and participating in team and client calls to align marketing with ongoing research and engagement work.
