Professional Work Samples

This collage showcases a few examples of precise linework, color separation, and image re-creation. Trim-cut lines were required to contain the least amount of anchor points possible to create a smooth cut. Color separations were required to overlap in areas where they are touching to account for slight registration errors. Customer-supplied raster logos that needed to be screen printed were required to be re-created and remastered for the best possible printing quality.

Pine Cone Bar

The fish and all of the color separations were redrawn and remastered to ensure that each color could screen-printed without any material showing through the points where the colors meet. Each place a unique color meets needed to intricately come together to print correctly.

Carcosa

A large poster design inspired by the podcast Malevolent. Focused on simple colors and shapes, symmetry, and spacing I attempted to visually reproduce the podcast's dark, sickly atmosphere, with elements drawing the viewer’s eye to key areas while maintaining a sense of tension.

Hi there! I’m a graphic designer and visual artist with over three years of professional experience in print production, digital design, and artwork remastering. My background combines strong technical precision with a passion for visually engaging design.

Professionally, I specialize in vector artwork creation, blueprint and art reconstruction, print-ready file preparation, and production design. My experience includes working with vinyl decals, etched metal plates, film printing, and screen printing, where accuracy, measurement, and production standards were essential. This work strengthened my attention to detail and my ability to create clean, highly precise design solutions.

In addition to print design, I have a strong interest in web design and visual presentation. At Metallics, Inc., I was entrusted with redesigning the company’s website from the ground up, where I designed and coded the site myself and incorporated original product photography to create a more polished and professional brand presence.

Outside of my professional work, I continue to explore personal artwork and photography as a way to grow creatively and refine my skills. I enjoy studying a wide range of artistic styles and techniques, applying their fundamentals to expand my own design perspective and visual problem-solving approach.

I am highly proficient in Adobe Illustrator and enjoy both the technical and creative sides of design. I also value collaboration, process improvement, and knowledge-sharing, and I often enjoy helping others learn new techniques and workflows.
