"Have fun. Be bold. Create something great." That was the challenge. We responded with FAREbars. As a team of five students, three of whom have personal experience managing food allergies, we set out to build a purpose-driven brand that addresses a real consumer need. FAREbars is a direct-to-consumer protein bar brand created for those seeking safe, convenient nutrition without compromise. I led consumer research and audience strategy, using market trends, consumer insights, and behavioral data to develop a clear positioning strategy and brand foundation. The result is a brand concept grounded in accessibility, trust, and the belief that everyone deserves to fuel their day without fear.
