U.S. City Map & Guide

Adobe Illustrator // Seattle, Miami, and Santa Monica – along with their iconic attractions (Seattle Space Needle, Miami's Art Deco District, and the Santa Monica Pier) – were chosen to create a Travel City Map Guide. Each city is expressed graphically with a clear, bold, and distilled vector graphic inspired by the work of George Tscherny.

Burson ‘Emergency Response Plan’

Adobe Illustrator // Burson was in need of a new cover for their Emergency Response Plan. The previous design had a sterile, white background with red text blotting the front. In an attempt to be on theme, it merely called out its own need for an emergency update. Below is both a light and dark version of the modernized covers that now completely evokes the Burson branding.

The Donna Book

Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator // Layout, Typography // Created for BCW’s former CEO, this book includes notes of endearment and admiration from co-workers and friends. I was tasked to transform a candid Word document of nearly a hundred email messages and invigorate them onto the pages of this coffee table style of book.

Hand Hierarchy

Adobe Illustrator // Facts of my life, lyrics from my favorite songs, and meaningful quotes are mapped out on the palm of my hand. Each element is placed at a 30- or 45-degree angle and works off the counterpoints of other groupings of text. Contrast in scale, position, proximity, and transparency are used to create visual interest and unity via hierarchy. The first has a maze-like approach, while the second is organized by past, present, and future.

Badass Animal Rescue

Adobe Illustrator // This flyer and infographic are two examples of work that I’ve designed for the NYC-based animal rescue in order to promote their organization.

Awards Deck Template

Microsoft Powerpoint // Presentation Design // These slides are examples from the larger deck template for other teams to use for pitch and award decks. It is intended to be visually-focused while giving room for word-heavy content.

Adobe Illustrator // After Burson’s brand guidelines were determined, an array of social templates needed to be designed to announce new hires, promotions, quote cards, and more. Shown here are Instagram posts created using the templates I designed.

Burson Social Templates

Adobe Photoshop // These mockups were a part of a pitch deck by the Burson Brand Experience team for their client, Bob’s Red Mill. The Burson brandmark is on the cloche and the wordmark is on the handle of the Danish dough whisk.

Bob’s Red Mill Mockups

Adobe Illustrator; Adobe AfterEffects // Motion Graphics // BCW Replay was an ongoing initiative with the purpose of resharing different BCW regions’ social media content on Instagram Stories and Reels. We needed Replay to truly stand out from anything BCW has done before. That meant bypassing the traditional guidelines in favor of a more digital look.

Cortaca Jug

Adobe Illustrator // Inspired by the Cortaca Jug Game, the "Biggest Little Game in the Nation" held annually between the Ithaca College Bombers and the Cortland Red Dragons. This particular design was for the year that the game was held for the first time ever at Yankee Stadium in New York, NY.

BCW The Learning Hub

Adobe Illustrator // The Learning Hub was a learning platform for WPP employees. The then-outdated graphics needed a redesign in favor of a modern, fun, and inviting feeling. BCW's brand shapes were used to symbolize the “building blocks of learning.”
