Understanding money management as one matures into adulthood.

This project aims to answer the question, how might we help young people better understand money management as they mature into adulthood? I needed a way to effectively teach young adults technical financial terms and phrases that they may not be familiar with in a way that they can understand. Within this practice-led project, I implement illustration and colour to design a guidebook in order to lead young adults through the difficult terms surrounding money in New Zealand. This project is done in the hopes that future generations will be more financially prepared when entering adulthood than I was.
