In working with many great clients including Starbucks, Coca-Cola, and General Mills, I've had the incredible opportunity to study and work with trends and design. In addition to package design, I also help clients with structure design, research, and innovation - whether it be through new products, creating new flavor profiles, or trends. At my current agency, CBX Worldwide, I focus on design but LOVE working with new food and beverage trends - especially the decadent and luxury market that is starting to become mainstream. Through the agency, I conduct CBXpeditions, which take clients on trend hunting trips for anything from chocolate to coffee to alcohol to clothing - anything can be a trend and discovered!
