ABOUT THE AUTHOR

My name is Paige Johansen and I’m passionate about all things branding, packaging, and skincare. Throughout my time at GCM, I have gained valuable skills and knowledge that have opened my eyes to the importance that effective graphic communications have on the media we consume and the products we use. This inspired me to write my thesis on how gender-neutral skincare brands are modifying their design elements in skincare product packaging. I hope my thesis can inspire others to critically think about the way our everyday products influence how we see the world around us. Upon completing my degree in GCM, you can find me starting my career in software sales, playing golf, and continuing my side hobby as an online clothing reseller.
