Strike Magazine Chattanooga’s issue 07 draws inspiration from cinematic storytelling, taking a chronological journey through life stages to highlight the importance of addressing systemic issues for the sake of future generations. It reflects on childhood, identity, and adulthood, prompting discussions on resilience, navigating societal challenges, and fostering human connection. As Creative Director, I oversee all creative aspects for the production of the magazine: concept building, layout design, production and set design, styling, photography, and videography. Issue 07 embraces change and diverse narratives, aiming to resonate with readers and inspire hope for the future.
