WHAT I CAN BRING TO THE TABLE.

Featured in this collection is a variety of work from the last 15 years. It features work from my time as a student to my time as a publication + print designer, brand developer, content producer, and digital marketer. I’ve learned to wear whatever hat is needed and I adapt to whichever role fits my client’s best interest. Please feel free to visit the sites that are featured below, as well as play through all of the videos as you’d like. I prefer to showcase my work in the setting that it was created for, therefore you will find mockups of websites and social media in video interfaces. If you have any questions for me, please let me know.

Thank you!

This campaign launched in Spring of 2019, as a political push to have the Virginian governor embrace the return of racing.

ADVENTURE AT AILIWI - MFA STUDENT WORK, 2018

Adventure at Ailiwi was a reveal campaign that was created for my MFA capstone. My goal was to showcase my local area under the facade of a guest ranch to draw interest and reveal that the adventure is just in your backyard. All of these assets were created to be seen by consumers within a 30 mile radius of Dubuque, IA and each of them re-directed the audience to the local parks, attractions and hidden gems that they have been overlooking.

Producer, Created for Paid Digitial Advertisements as well as social and digital header videos.

New brand design, market researched show that in order to translate well to digital platforms, their current logo (2010) was too detailed and needed to be refined for a cleaner, more recognizable mark.
