Creating a Cohesive Online Identity for a Growing Podcast
Role: Web Designer/Developer | Social Media Marketer | Thumbnail Creator
Tools: Figma, WordPress, Google Suite, Capcut
The Challenge
The podcast lacked a dedicated website and cohesive brand identity, making it difficult to build recognition and maintain consistency across platforms. Without a centralized hub, content and communication felt fragmented, reducing engagement and limiting audience growth.
The Solution
I designed and developed a website and social media branding system that unified the podcast’s digital identity. This included creating a consistent visual theme, short-form video edits, and thumbnail designs that strengthened audience recognition and engagement.

What I Learned
Through my work on You Ask We Podcast, I discovered how design can go beyond aesthetics to inspire engagement and connection. Building a full digital presence, from brand identity to web and social media. It showed me the impact of aligning creative storytelling with strategy. Each decision was guided by purpose, ensuring every visual and interaction strengthened the audience’s relationship with the brand.
The true success of this project wasn’t measured by metrics alone, but by the community it helped create. Seeing listeners engage, share, and connect reminded me why I build digital experiences to make people feel part of something bigger. This experience deepened my passion for design that drives meaning, trust, and growth, and reaffirmed that thoughtful creativity can change not only how people see a brand, but how they feel about it.
