An assortment of screenprints, drawings, and beer label concepts I have created. One of my favorite things to do as a graphic designer is to try and get back to being messy with my hands again and create art using paint, markers, charcoal, or ink. I often like to incorporate hand-done work into beer concepts.

This rack card brochure can be found around the boardwalk area of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. It gives a quick glimpse at what the Virginia Aquarium has to offer.

Various items held at the Virginia Aquarium Gift Store— chocolate bars, collectible pennybook, and brown paper bags to put purchased items in at checkout.

The Virginia Aquarium hosts a wide variety of events directed to a variety of ages. From the Fins & Frights halloween event to the 4th of July Specialty Boat Cruise to the Sharks After Dark Adults Only evenings— there is always something fun happening.

The branding for each of these events is just as unique as the programs themselves. Each brand is designed to give you a visual hint and draw you in.

The Osprey Café, located inside the Virginia Aquarium, is a completely zero waste café using all compostable food/drink containers and utensils.

They were running into the issue of guests not fully understanding what goes into each bin, therefore just throwing everything away. These table tents are to help educate guests on how everything in the café is biodegradable and why it’s important. The disposal signage is to show them what items go where in a quick, efficient, and easy way to understand.

This booklet is to hold photos taken by Photogenics at the end of guests’ visits to the Virginia Aquarium.

Birthday Postcards sent to donors of the Virginia Aquarium and Blank Cards used for a variety of messages.

Brainwaves at the Beach is a project currently in development. I worked with longtime members of the Virginia Aquarium, Mark Swingle and Chris Witherspoon, along with scientists and the program manager from the Department of Environmental Quality at the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program to create 3 sets of panels that will sit in various locations down the Virginia Beach Boardwalk. Each goes over a selected topic of importance and is meant to educate our visitors on the Atlantic Ocean and all it’s creatures, as well as the impact we as humans have on it.

The Bike Virginia Tour is one of the best annual premiere riding experiences that Virginia has to offer. The 2019 tour will go from Woodstock to Harrisonburg and is over the course of six days. The main inspiration for this design was the cyclists themselves and the energy they bring as they travel as one large group. I decided to do a bunch of bicyclists riding in at an angle so it’s very dynamic, fun, and energetic. I chose to do simple illustrations from an aerial view and used bright colors that would often be found on bicycle attire.

Beach Lawn and Landscapes is a local landscaping business in Virginia Beach, VA. They wanted a simple, clean logo that stood out through bold letters and bright colors and could easily be seen and recognized on shirts and trucks. They wanted an element to show what the company was without needing to read “lawn service” or “landscaping”.

Way To Go is a non-profit organization in the Harrisonburg area that works to provide reliable transportation to low-income families so that their employment opportunities will not be compromised. The logo was designed to resemble the Harrisonburg skyline forming into a key shape. The stroke, colors, and diagonal angles were carried throughout the other deliverables to create a cohesive unit.

This project was created through Technology & Design and is an annual T-shirt design competition held by Madison Union, James Madison University’s on-campus union. The main focus was to gain interest from the student body by creating a fun and playful branding.

Dopper is a sustainable water bottle company based in the Netherlands. Every Dopper water bottle sold is one step closer to achieving a world in which people are conscious of the environment we live in, where the amount of single-use plastic is reduced and where everyone, near and far, has access to safe drinking water. The report is designed throughout to mimic the shape and bright colors of the bottles.

MeditaTours provides meditation group guide services to companies, schools, organizations as well as pop up services at various locations throughout communities. The company does this with themes for every meditation.

The brochure provides insight on the prominence of human sex trafficking in the US and educates the public on where it can be found and what the possible signs are. Backing up the information are statistics to provide a visual of its demand in the United States.

On The Road is a novel by American writer Jack Kerouac, based on the travels of Kerouac and his friends across the United States. It is considered a defining work of the postwar Beat and Counterculture generations, with its protagonists living life against a backdrop of jazz, poetry, and drug use. The blue colors used as well as the sketchy drawing style for the illustration and type is meant to reflect the Jazz culture that the characters are surrounded by as well as their ever-changing and uncertain lives.

The Monterey Jazz Festival is an annual festival held in Monterey, California. It is a three day, two night event with over five hundred of the best jazz musicians performing. My design was based on “old-school” jazz clubs found in cities downtown. I wanted the type to reflect the look of neon lights on an old brick wall.
