School Projects
Rebel Dog Coffee Co.​
After Effects Animation
This project was focused on creating line objects and creative text to form a modern logo. I used the rotation and position tool for the lines that form the dog's head and the title, “Rebel Dog.” I created a shape and placed an alpha inverted matte mask so that the title would slide up. I believe this is more creative than just having the entire company name displayed simultaneously.
Save the Ocean
Outreach & Photoshop
This project is intended to present a clear and eye opening message using typography and shapes. I wanted to be minimalist in this project design, otherwise the viewer would miss the major messages. Therefore, I employed icons and simple statements to capture the reader's attention.
Love is Blind
Juxtaposition
I created this visual with the intention of tying the picture with the statement. I used Photoshop to create a dramatic black and white photo of a young man with wax over his eyes to illustrate that love can prevent him from truly
seeing reality.
Bike West Hartford
Website Design Mockup
I created an alternate website for Bike West Hartford by integrating images from the their original website with new images and icons. I used a new color scheme to create a more visually appealing website. Click the button below to explore the website.
Alvarium Beer Co.
Website Design
This is the home page hero that I created for this brewery. I refreshed the website and hero making it cleaner and therefore more appealing to Alvarium's target audience.
Wild Things
Logo and Business Card Design
I used Adobe Illustrator to create a wild animal logo for a furnishing company, using the pen tool. I found a business card mockup, used Photoshop's pen tool and text tool to create a visually interesting business card.
Basics Inc.
Logo and Clothing Tag Design
Basics is meant to be an all natural clothing company. Therefore, I created a simple logo and tag using the pen tool, shape tool and a drop shadow in Photoshop. I avoided a complex design because "natural" implies clean and simple. Given this was intended to be an upscale retail store, I gave the logo a simple yet modern feel.
Sand Saviors Services
Website Design
For this green initiative project, I created a company that turned consumer glass into sand for beaches. I sought to make the website for this initiative fun, friendly, and modern. In order to quickly capture the attention of those visiting the site, I simply showed what the company does.
Alvarium Instagram Story
Social media design
I created three social media posts marketing Alvarium Brewery's new lager, Griff, the company's late mascot I created a Facebook banner, Instagram story and Instagram post all using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. The design kept the emphasis to remain on Griff's memorial to promote Alvariums new lager.
Freelance Work
Revamped Brochure
Cummins Facility Services
I worked under Dan Ralabate to improve a brochure using Adobe Illustrator for Cummins Facility Services. I kept multiple aspects of the previous brochure like the waves and color scheme but I made it more clean, modern and interesting to look at.
Youth Center of Texas
Redesigned Logo
I was asked by the founder of the Youth Center of Texas Sunflower Home to redesign their old logo. My goal was to make a sunflower logo with the state of Texas in the middle so I used Adobe Illustrator to create multiple designs and continue to communicate with the founder until we made a logo that they were happy with.
Advertisements & Menus
Pancho Villa Mexican Restaurant
Magazine Advertisement
Pancho Villa Mexican Restaurant was a client given to me to make a new ad. They didn't have a logo so I created a simple but eye-catching version that they liked. I found pictures on their social media to showcase what they serve and I added a few fun graphics into the ad highlighting fun activities they offer.
Hook & Reel
Magazine Advertisement
Hook & Reel was a potential client so me and my colleges made multiple redesigns of their old ad to show what we could do for them. This was my favorite design that they ended up going with. I also made a matching menu to go along with it using Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop.
Caffe Italia
Menu Insert
Caffe Italia needed a menu for their restaurant and I was assigned to make a modern and elegant and showing who they are and what they serve. I found very aesthetically pleasing photos on their website that I could use on the menu and I found Illustrations to put in the background to give the ad more character.
Social Media
National Use Your Gift Card Day
Social Media Graphic
Every month working at Finer Living Magazine we had to make a certain amount of Social Media Graphics for the month. This particular graphic was one of many that I made for Instagram, I gave the feeling of a warm tone to use up those gift cards using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
gmonkey Fast Food
Social Media Graphic
For some days out of the month we would give a shoutout to some of our clients so this day we sent it out to gmonkey Fast Food. I wanted to give it a more organic and natural feel since they were a plant based restaurant and I did all this using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
Veterans Day
Social Media Graphic
We would also make graphics for holidays so for Veterans Day I wanted to use a more serious tone and highlight all who have served but also soldiers who are in active duty. I again used all of this with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
