A sample of the revised job site signage for HITT Contracting. After a brand refresh in summer 2022, all of the signage and way finding for HITT across the country needed to be updated to adhere to the new brand. This included over 700 signs in English and Spanish that are critical to the work that HITT does and the safety of the job sites. I worked with a print vendor in the D.C. area to ensure that all signage was updated in a timely and organized manner and was ready for purchase by all of our site operations teams on the day that the rebrand was launched.

In 2022 I was honored to be selected as the D.C. artist to contribute designs for two new patches for Outpatch. Here I am showing some of my early sketches and ideas I had for these patches. I wanted to evoke two different emotions with the patches and showcase the vibrancy that I’ve come to love so much about D.C. Ultimately the final two patches were decided upon and I love the contrast between them. One showing a bright and sunny day in peak tourist season in D.C. and the other being a bit more moody and romantic showing the Lincoln memorial at night under three stars representing the D.C. flag.

Feature spread design for IMF Finance & Development magazine. This feature was about the need for a global transition away from oil to a more sustainable energy source. The illustration transitions from a dark scene to a brighter future, but creates an impending sense of doom for the small ship floating on oil about to sail off a cliff.

Feature spread design for IMF Finance & Development magazine. This feature is about the cresting wave of debt that small and developing economies almost certainly will face after the economic bail outs caused by the COVID-19 crisis. I wanted to evoke a sense of fear with a large wave composed of international currencies swelling up, about to crash down on the headline and the reader’s gaze.

The IMT Energy Opportunity scan is a printed booklet (6 pages total) used as a tool to help cities understand how to become more energy efficient. The finished product is a highly illustrative booklet that refines and condenses what was originally an almost 30 page, text heavy document. The purpose of the Opportunity Scan is to make learning about energy efficiency and the necessary steps more approachable and appealing to adults in the corporate workplace. I was inspired by Schoolhouse Rock! illustrations by David McCall as well as the children’s book Wump World illustrations by Bill Peet. My goal was to create something that an employee would take home and share with his/her kids, generating questions like “What is energy efficiency?” at the dinner table. All illustrations are done on ipad pro using Procreate App, final layout in InDesign. 2018
