ABOUT ME I am a very out of the box thinker. I love the concept development part of Graphic Design. In my mind, the possibilities are limitless. I am a very detail-oriented person, and I’m excited to get out into the world and see what my future holds. I really do enjoy creating work for other people and making it exactly what they ask for. I’m very passionate about the work that I do, no matter what it is.

SWEET RELIEF DIABETES APP The purpose behind this project is to be an app that will connect directly to a Type I Diabetic's insulin pod and will be able to do everything that the Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) does and more. So much more! It would distribute insulin automatically on a regulated schedule, and could provide automatic Glucose levels, and you could also keep documentation of everything that happened for the next doctor's appointment.
THE FLOATING TEA LEAF BRANDING The purpose of this campaign was to brand a tea company that offered only loose leaf tea. The hope was that big tea enthusiasts would be attracted by the looks and feel of the campaign. The overall design gives the components a rather expensive and fancy look because tea fanatics are typically fancy and high class. Therefore, the campaign had to draw them in somehow, and what better way to do it than giving it a look they can relate to and respect.
WARHEADS CHALLENGE 90’S DAY The idea behind this campaign was to bring people our age back to the 90's, inspired by the Warheads Challenge. Therefore, I built a wooden version of the game Plinko, and painted it bright colors to go with a vibrant 90's theme. We then had people play the game, racing against each other, and then they had to eat a Warhead and try not to make a sour face.
LIMITLESS TYPOGRAPHY There was to be a client chosen for inspiration. The client chosen was Twitter. The client was highly recognized for their ability to cram a bunch of awesomeness into a tiny space, most recently, their time limit on vine. That’s where the inspiration for this modular typeface design came from. Even with the restriction 6 seconds on vine, there are still so many different things one can do within those limitations. This type face has a small amount of modules, yet, there are still so many things that can be done with them. It might even be said the possibilities are limitless.

FAITH ALIVE SUMMER CAMP CAMPAIGN The following components were designed for a Presbyterian Summer Camp that I work at. My design choices are meant to attract parents who want their kid to go to camp for a week or two during the Summer. Every Summer, there's a different theme. The theme this summer is "Faith Alive" which is why that is the highlight of all the components. The line work was meant to represent the word "Alive", which is the reappearing word in all the components. The pictures that are in the components are from camp.
HEIMANN PRODUCTS PACKAGING The Heiman Pocket Knife was made by a company who makes firefighter equipment. The purpose of this project was to take an existing product and brand it as something else. I took the Heiman Pocket Knife, and instead of using it as a firefighter's knife, I used it as a survival pocket knife for in the wilderness. The main part of this project was the unique package design I used.
MATHAZOIC MATHEMATICS APP The purpose of this app is to help kids who are visual learners to learn math in a fun a simple way by incorporating dinosaurs to help the kids visually understand the concepts behind math and how they can apply it to their everyday lives. This app will not only include a section for the kids but also for the teachers to help enhance kids' learning experience.
