CARNEGIE MELLON SCHOOL OF DESIGN
Jacky Lococo is a junior, studying communication design with a passion for print design, illustration, and brand design. As a designer, she loves to create applicable, elegant, and risk-taking graphic design and interfaces. She enjoys taking on challenges that allow her to develop her design methods and perspectives on design. Being consistently inspired by crafting narratives, she loves to create immersive worlds and stories that audiences can enter into. Through classes and personal projects, she also enjoys experimenting with mediums, whether it be through motion graphics, photography, and 3D modeling. When she’s not in the studio or buried in the Creative Suite, she can be found working on a crochet project or trying a new gluten-free baking recipe!
WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL INSPIRED?
I am often inspired by compelling stories as well as unique compositions in everyday life.
WHAT ARE YOU READING/LISTENING TO/WATCHING?
I’ve been listening to Beyoncé’s Renaissance album quite a bit and watching the Great British Baking Show whenever I get the chance!
WHO IS SOMEONE YOU LOOK UP TO IN YOUR FIELD?
I really admire the work of Irma Boom!
WHAT IS ONE THING THAT DESIGN SCHOOL HAS TAUGHT YOU THAT YOU DID NOT EXPECT?
I’ve learned how important the community of students and friends around you are to foster a creative process and culture. Together, our class navigated difficult times during COVID-19, and through the experience, we looked out for one another, helped each other, and tried to support each other. I find myself incredibly grateful that I am able to work, laugh, and interact with them every day.
