Print and Digital Ads, App Design, Snapchat Filters, Social Media Materials

As a student designer for the University of Dayton’s Marketing and Communications department, I had the opportunity to work on a number of incredible projects. I had the opportunity to create a logo for the university's app and I was there during a huge rebrand with the university. I gained valuable experience working within brand guidelines.

Early in quarantine I was approached by my closest friend to help create a brand for her father who was recently diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. We worked on this branded project and I took direction from him throughout quarantine until he passed away September 2020. As a designer I made it my upmost priority to create exactly what he imagined and wanted to express. I felt inspired by the passion fueled politically charged Rock and Roll era of the 70’s.

Vivian Luther, an enigmatic up and coming artist hired me to design her promotional campaign for her debut singles. I edited the photography, created illustrations in pro create and animated her Spotify platform through Adobe After Effects.

Gift set designed on brand for a local Dayton store; Luna Gifts & Botanicals.

I created a gift set from the history of Luna’s six longtime best friends and founders of the shop. The strength of these creative intelligent six women shows throughout their products. The sun, moon, and all four elements dictate tendencies each zodiac sign has and it correlates to a specific plant.

I wanted this product to have an environmental impact, therefore I made an effort to focus on sustainability. I did not want any part of the gift set to be thrown away. The wooden triangles can be reused and the packaging is printed on 100% recycled paper.

Informational design for a graduate student’s research poster.

The research was on display at our Stander Symposium. The University of Dayton’s annual showcase of individual and collaborative undergraduate and graduate research, creative endeavors, and academic achievements.

I organized the information in a way that the viewer could navigate through her process and development.
