Mai Moore

Building bridges,
inspiring change.
Mai Moore is a dynamic leader in the social impact space, celebrated for her ability to unite communities, inspire action, and drive meaningful change. When Mai approached us, she sought a personal brand that could authentically represent her multifaceted work and elevate her presence as a changemaker on a global stage. Our mission was to craft a cohesive identity that amplified her voice, aligned with her values, and empowered her to connect with her audience in a profound way.
The Challenge
Mai’s existing brand lacked the clarity and cohesion to fully convey the depth of her work. As a public speaker, mentor, and social impact advocate, her identity needed to unite these roles under one compelling narrative. At the same time, it was critical to balance strength with approachability and ensure the brand reflected her inclusive, visionary leadership. The challenge was to design a brand that resonated with her diverse audience while remaining true to her mission of bridging worlds and inspiring change.
The Approach
We began with an immersive discovery process to uncover the core of Mai’s story. Through collaborative workshops, we delved into her mission, audience, and goals, identifying key themes that defined her work. Drawing inspiration from leaders in similar spaces, we analyzed how to position Mai uniquely as a voice for connection and empowerment. The visual identity centered on a wave motif, symbolizing flow, connection, and transformation. We paired this with a bold yet approachable color palette of coral, teal, and black to evoke both strength and warmth. The messaging framework emerged around three pillars: “Bridging Worlds,” “Inspiring Change,” and “Empowering Communities,” each reflecting Mai’s ability to lead with purpose and authenticity.

The Solution
The outcome was a vibrant and empowering brand identity tailored to Mai’s vision. The logo, featuring a modern wave icon and clean typography, became the centerpiece, encapsulating Mai’s ability to connect diverse perspectives. The website we designed offered an engaging platform to showcase her work and foster deeper connections with her audience, combining striking visuals with intuitive navigation. To complement the brand, we curated professional photography that captured Mai’s leadership and charisma. From stationery to digital assets, every element was meticulously crafted to reflect her energy, purpose, and the forward momentum of her mission. The narrative and visual elements worked in harmony to unify her roles and communicate her impact effectively.
