Graphic Design and Illustration

 I started my professional career in graphic design and web design, working both as an in-house designer and an agency designer. I love to work with private clients now to create beautiful, effective designs that help them achieve their communication goals. I especially love projects that engage my illustration skills to create the most eye-catching, specialized content for clients.

Find examples of some of my favorite projects below! If you’d like to explore working together on your next project, don’t hesitate to reach out.

I worked with the conference host to create digital and print pieces for the Energy Design Conference. This included postcard and booklet mailers, digital ads, graphics and files for the website, signage and the conference booklet attendees received at the event. There was a lot of information to organize and present in a clear, user-friendly way while not losing the energy or personality of the conference. I think our finished project did just that!

Identity design for the 2023 St. Louis County Health & Human Services Conference. We played with the idea of courageous connection starting from a moment of vulnerability and reaching out, and showing that so much good can come from that courageous step.

This business was looking for a logo mark that would play with the form of a mug (for mug cakes!) and fit the name “0n 93rd and Grace) into that form. The finished product now “graces” each mug cake packet.

I designed this logo for a photographer who specializes in drone fly-over images and video for a variety of clients. We played with shutter shapes to emphasize the technical nature of his work. See his work »

I created an elf for a holiday-themed, energy-saving campaign. I took apart a cheap baby doll, painted the face and hair while a co-worker made a body and clothes with wire, felt and fiber fill. Once we had our elf, we set up and shot the photos and I designed each print and digital piece we used in the campaign.

The Dog Bandana approached me to help them incorporate hand-drawn elements to their visual brand. We decided to create a few product details highlights (like this) to add visual interest while still displaying the products in photos for shoppers.
