Nice to meet you! My name is Corey Ricks Jr. I’m a graphic designer who attends Virginia Commonwealth University for Graphic Design & Marketing Insights. I specialize in creating brand identities, cover art, and visuals that speak to the heart of a message. Whether it’s helping a musician bring their sound to life visually or working with a small business to build a brand that feels true to them, I love connecting people through design. My style often blends bold colors, striking typography, and nostalgic textures to create work that is both modern and emotionally resonant. I am also a social media manager for “Black Minds Matter”, an organization at VCU. Outside of design, I’m passionate about music, movies, culture, and building community. I aspire to work in the music industry as a creative director or visual designer, developing full visual worlds for artists and brands. Through my work, I hope to inspire, connect, and create impact. I’m excited to be part of a space that values creativity, boldness, and growth—and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.
