ROLE: CREATIVE DIRECTOR
What It Is
Galore is a student-built gallery and shop in Chapel Hill created to give student artists a real platform. I collaborated with a small team to design the space and launch it publicly. It’s now a living, breathing creative hub—hosting shows, selling student work, and fueling the arts scene on UNC’s campus.

Results
Galore is UNC’s first student-led concept gallery and retail space, created to give student artists a place to showcase and profit from their work. I co-founded the space, helped design the store, and developed brand experiences that brought it to life — including Word-For-Word, our live poetry and performance series. Galore now operates as a gallery, storefront, and creative hub, regularly hosting events and featuring student-made apparel, art, jewelry, and more.
