Hi, I’m Sophia Stanton! I recently graduated from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas, with a B.S. in Strategic Communication and a minor in Graphic Design, earning cum laude distinction.  I chose to make the move to Chicago—a city I’ve long admired for its creative energy and vibrant marketing, branding, and design community.

Over the past year, I served as a Creative Lead and Graphic Designer for Roxo, TCU’s student-led advertising and PR agency, where I contributed to rebranding campaigns and client-facing marketing deliverables. I also completed a paid internship with Mercer Wine Estates, a fifth-generation winery, where I led a full brand and multi-label redesign focused on visual storytelling and hospitality marketing.

My passion lies in design, branding, photography, and digital marketing—with strong interest in strategic brand development and integrated marketing communications. My creative approach is deeply rooted in my Arizona roots—inspired by the color, light, and texture of desert landscapes— and broadened during my semester in London, where I explored global design influences and gained a wider creative perspective

Whether working on client projects, academic campaigns, or personal work, I’m committed to understanding the core objective and delivering thoughtful, high-quality results. I’m excited to bring my skills, creativity, and energy to a full-time opportunity in Chicago!
