Portfolio

Fueled by curiosity and driven by introspection. These are the words I would use to describe both my work and my process. I strive to find both creativity and beauty in the life around me, even if what we see is not, by definition, beautiful. Curiosity has lended me experience and skills in over a dozen different artistic mediums and continues to water my creative growth. Introspection lends me subject matter for creation: themes of identity and surreal concepts to further explore for myself and the world around me. With these two aspects combined, I have the full extent of creativity at my disposal to evoke what I feel and what I have learned. What I intend for my work is to show people a new perspective of life, because life is a lot like art: messy and beautiful. 

Artist Statement

Graphic Design

Brunch & Brews

For this project, my client was a food and coffee chain coined "Brunch and Brews." Simple, clean, cozy, and modern; the goal for "Brunch and Brews" was to visually display these core values, and make a recognisable brand identity suitable for retail and marketing.

Personal Brand

This project establishes my "personal brand," complete with logo variations, my own color palette, and business stationery mock-ups. The goal here was to establish a visual that is synonymous with my name, and can be used to both identify and market myself across social platforms and in person.

Vinyl Redesign

This project seeks to re-conceptualize a pre-existing album cover from the artist Hozier, and create a vinyl package with the new designs; complete with mock-ups and the layout for print.

Custom Merchandise

These are the mock-ups I made for a commission. When I worked for the company University Partners at their central Florida location, The Lofts, I was approached by the property manager to create some graphics for merchandise. These graphics were used on giveaway items and staff T-shirts.
