Bread: A Mini Money Manual Zine

The Bread zine is one of my favorite things I have made. Before I started my graphic design journey, I was a public speaker and emcee in the personal finance space for many years. This zine combines my love of financial education with graphic design in a perfect marriage of my passions. It has been a wonderful tool for me to hand out at conferences when I give budgeting workshops, as well as an excellent product for me to sell online and at in-person boutiques.

This was designed with InDesgin with custom illustrations drawn in Procreate and Adobe Illustrator. I loved being able to use my art throughout the booklet and adding a personal flair. A big challenge was creating tables and grids for the budgeting chart. I enjoyed learning about the InDesign software and the tools it provided to create an organized layout.

This was a major learning process for me as I have been able to use this Zine as a template for more workbooks, including a guide on managing anxiety and a marriage connection book that helps couples communicate in their relationship.
