Children's Book Cover

The book cover was created specifically to appeal to children by using bright colors and charming penguin characters. Adobe InDesign was used for the layout and the penguins and iceberg were rendered in Illustrator.

Magazine Cover

This example employs typographic hierarchy, contrasting colors, and a tempting image to contribute to the overall aesthetics as well as ensuring readability. Adobe InDesign was the primary tool used for this layout.

Magazine Content Page

The objective of this example was to inform and guide the reader using typographic hierarchy for maximum coherence. It was created using Adobe InDesign and the images were cropped and/or resized using Photoshop.

Editorial Spread

The priority of this design was that the article be easily readable, with elements such as the title, pull quote, photos, and drop cap assisting in that goal. The layout was created using InDesign and Photoshop.

Banner Ad

The banner ad was a self-initiated project to explore techniques in creating a.gif file for online advertisement. The panels used in the ad were initially created in Adobe Illustrator, saved as JPEG files and imported into Photoshop to create the final product.

Tri-fold Brochure

This project combines marketing information with interesting visual elements to create an engaging message. This was done through typographic hierarchy, logical organization, and using consistent color, typefaces, and logo styles. It was created using InDesign, with some assistance from Illustrator and Photoshop.

Swiss Style Poster

This poster was created in the minimalist International Typographic, or Swiss style using a grid layout. The layout was composed in Adobe Illustrator, and designed to be printed as a full 24” x 36” poster.

Packaging/Label Design

The design was conceived to appeal to health conscious, but thirsty adults with adventurous tastes. Adobe Illustrator was used to create all the elements of this piece. As with all of my work, I try to be aware of any images, wording, or other messages that may be construed as offensive.

Charity Poster

The goal of the poster is to raise public awareness. Although it is an earlier work, I feel the simple flat design is still relevant today. Adobe Illustrator was used to produce this piece.

Logo Design

The logo was designed in Illustrator to appeal to a female target audience, primarily through the pastel color palette, script typeface, and the pink cupcake image. The call out, “Make Every Occasion Special!” is also targeted to women who are generally tasked with organizing special events.
