The Silhouette Series was a marketing piece designed for the IndyCC conference. We wanted to convey the idea that peoples' mental states varied greatly coming into the conference.
I was the most experienced designer on the team and the implementation and digitization fell to me. I used the photographs taken by our photographer to create these pieces.
These pieces were designed both for print and a social media campaign. Each image was accompanied by a story and we engaged the audience to action by asking them to share their stories about where they were.

Graphic Design
A digital product mockup for a game of my own design, Avatar Alliances. Avatar: The Last Airbender is a favorite franchise of mine, so I designed this game and all its graphic assets as a passion project. My dream is to see it made some day.

This is a texture map for the game box, created in Adobe Creative Suite. This file was imported to Blender and wrapped around a box shape, which was then imported into Tabletop Simulator to generate the digital product mockup image used on the sell sheet.

Worn Wanderers booster pack and it's contents. Again, all graphic design, package design, and print prep was done by me.
A quick-start guide meant to compress the concepts of Worn Wanderers into a 5 x 7" sheet. The sheet is used to allow curious players to get a rules overview if staff is unable to explain the concepts in person. For example, if the booth at a convention is swamped and no one is available to help a customer.

The Big Shuffle Kickstarter banner, featuring a digital render of the game done in blender.
A preview of different card frames designed to help players distinguish different card types. As a noir game, the UX was an added challenge with such a restricted color palette. We tested subtly different frames to help players easily asses different card types in their hand and in play.
Just some fun goofin' around with the Goons! Little creative touches like the small title change helped breath some life and fun into a very dark game!

The Vision Conference was another client we designed for. In this final piece, my team was at a loss for how to convert the reference photos of writing on the arms into the design here. I contributed my technical prowess to automate the process and save hundreds of hours of work across all finished pieces.
This is a Hoodie design for my Chicago Summer Project Client. They wanted a souvenir hoodie to say thank you to their interns. The shirt features Chicago icons in a bold, minimalistic style.

Laser cut Worn Wanderers cards are tested on a laser cut acrylic pin to ensure proper spacing, tolerances, and smooth mechanics.
After a problem was discovered with the Mark 4 Worn Wanderers card design where cards could catch and tear upon rotating backwards, this Mark 5 design was mocked up and laser cut to continue testing the design iterations.
With Worn Wanderers out in the world, we wanted to excite players and recognize their wins, so I designed, laser cut, and painted this and several similar trophies for tournaments across the US.

I was asked to participate in a fundraiser for Pepsi's "My Possibilities" NPO. Artists collaborated on a series of mythical creatures overcoming their disabilities, which were then created as collectible cards and sold to raise money. This piece depicts Abigail, a hydra who suffered a spinal injury. She enjoys beatboxing, hip-hop, and playing wheelchair basketball.

This is a visualization of the various layers of a world map I designed and created for a custom Dungeons and Dragons campaign setting.
​
The map includes geography, national borders, major cities, roads, rivers, shipping lanes, and more.
​
The file is a vector image created in Adobe Illustrator. This allows me to easily create zoomed-in portions of the map that highlight specific regions.
​
You may notice that the map, when turned upside-down, resembles North America. The setting for the Dungeons and Dragons campaign this map is based on is actually a post apocalyptic, far future version of our world. The magnetic poles of the world have shifted, and global warming has flooded much of North America and created new lakes. Ancient heritage can be still be seen on the map though, such as the nation of Hudland, named for the ancient Hudson river of that region, or the city of Kingsport, which is built on the ruins of modern day Portland.
