In late 2021, I began designing products for a side business called Scout Rucking that I would later launch in March 2022. I designed and sold rucking challenge patches and t-shirts through a Shopify online store. I handled all aspects of the business, including design, ordering, fulfillment, and marketing.

“Rucking” is a sport most simply described as walking with weight stowed in a backpack. Many of the workouts are challenge-based where ruckers would earn patches after completing a certain distance, carrying a certain wright, or performing additional exercises.

I also offered several shirt designs.
