About The Logo
After many unsatisfying attempts to use my initials as my logo, my previous concepts were too generic and did not have enough personal flavor. I desired a great logo, but I wanted it to be intentional, my logo should define my brand and give it meaning.
When sketching designs, I wanted my logo to help tell my story visually. My current 'rabbit' logo is derived from my childhood nickname, Hopper, which my parents called me growing up. I used this nickname as inspiration to create a rabbit (since they hop), utilizing solely the five letters of my first name. Family has always been a significant part of my story, so incorporating an element of my family into my logo allows me to share a deeper story. This new take on an old nickname represents the past I am grateful for and the exciting future to come.
