Sam’s Club

Event Design


I worked on event design project for Sam’s Club’s annual conference, collaborating closely with art directors and event developers. My role involved designing print materials, display graphics for the conference and stage motion graphics for a guest concert—everything aimed at enhancing the audience experience and creating a seamless, engaging atmosphere throughout the event








KCVLAA


UI/UX Design

Website redesign and rebranding project for Kansas City Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts. This nonprofit organization provides legal and accounting assistance to artists and arts organizations across various creative disciplines.



Our strategic design approach allowed us to successfully restructure the service application process and replacing lengthy text with clear, intuitive pictograms. We focused on both the visual design and user flow, creating a more efficient and user-friendly experience.






I created this poster to celebrate Kansas City’s global spotlight in the FIFA World Cup 2026! It’s such exciting news, and I never get tired of talking about how awesome this city is! The vibrant colors and dynamic shapes reflect the energy and diversity of Kansas City and capture the excitement of being part of a worldwide event.

Truity Credit Union


Campaign Design


Designed campaign collateral for Truity’s ‘Here for You’ campaign, including social media posts, e-newsletters, online banners, and more, all aimed at creating a cohesive and engaging brand presence across multiple platforms. The campaign focused on reinforcing Truity’s commitment to supporting its members with personalized financial services, while emphasizing trust and reliability in every touchpoint.



I created a set of pictograms for a printed instruction guide on artwork handling, designed to complement detailed text. Each pictogram visually represents key care instructions: avoiding direct sunlight, dust cleaning methods, proper hanging height, and maintaining optimal room temperature and humidity.






The Romanticized


For “The Romanticized” exhibition at the H&R Block Artspace, I designed both a billboard and mural that bring the essence of the show out into the streets. The graphics were inspired by the artworks in the exhibition, translating their flowing forms and soft color palettes into bold, eye-catching visuals.

Recognized by AIGA A18 Award

Seeking Plural Narratives


Editorial Design


This was a collaborative book project that earned recognition with an AIGA A18 Award. Our team worked closely to bring together innovative design, compelling content, and thoughtful storytelling, resulting in a piece that not only resonated with readers but also stood out in the design community. The award highlights the creativity and dedication that went into every stage of the project, from concept to execution.


In the ‘Prints from Different Cultures’ section, the front cover page is designed to be cut out and repurposed as a bookmark, adding a functional and interactive element to the experience. This thoughtful design not only enhances the usability of the book but also allows readers to carry a piece of the cultural narrative with them, bridging the gap between the printed page and daily life.
