I believe design should always work for the people who will experience it. Engaging your audience in any given message requires careful considerations of their unique needs and interests. I do my best with each project to fully understand who my designs will speak to.
- Design: UX, Identity, Print/Graphic
- Development: CSS, XHTML, JS Frameworks, CMS Integration

Project Role: Brand Identity
New Beyond Logo
I was recently commissioned to create a brand identity for a woman starting a catering business. After a few weeks of research and concept designing, the following concept was chosen. It features elegant flourishes complimented with crisp, modern type. The color palette was chosen to symbolize modern, ethnic cooking.
Project Role: Brand Identity
MOCHA Center
This past spring, I was asked to take on a logo redesign that had been mismanaged in two prior attempts. Working with a limited time frame, my number one priority was to gain an understanding of MOCHA's work in the past, it's mission today, and it's goal's for the future. The signature above was chosen for it's symbolism of uniting under a common purpose.
