For their 2018 Global Leadership Conference, I took part in developing all the content for the three day long even in Arizona. Two weeks prior to the event I travelled on-site and worked alongside leaders in the company to prepare their presentations. Also, I worked with my companies production team and printers to produce signage and banners for the event.

I travelled to Arizona for the event and continued the tasks mentioned above. During this time we continued making edits and working with the production team to ensure the client had the most up-to-date presentations if they had any changes along the way.

This project involved a large group of people and juggling several different requests at the same time.

The objective was to create Accenture’s Corporate Citizen Report with new branding. Based off a basic template, I designed the report while working with a Creative Director and the client. Throughout the process, the template was manipulated in order to fit the clients evolving requests. Imagery and iconography was also found and created by myself.

These posters were executed by myself as a student from photographing the imagery through the finished design.

Broken Mirror Brewery was a branding and packaging project done as a student. The name of the brewery and beer names were given and all involved different superstitions. After researching the origin of each superstition, I created a geometric visualization for each label. For example, one origin of spilled salt being unlucky goes back to the painting of the last supper. In the painting, Judas is knocking over a vessel of salt. Therefore, the one square is tilted to represent the one crooked disciple.

This project won a Student Merit in How Magazine's 2014 International Design Awards. It has also been featured in an article, "10 Intoxicating Beer Packaging Designs".
