2011

I LOVE MUSEUMS, TRAVEL, WORN OUT BOOKS, COLD COFFEE,

POWERMIXES, EXCEPTIONAL CARS, HOLLYWOOD REGENCY, GOOD

SHOES, AND OBSERVING, CLASSIFYING, AND IMPROVING. I LEARNED

TO DRIVE A MANUAL AT EIGHT, BUILT A WEBSITE ON CATAWBA TREES

AT TEN, FOUND MY FIRST LOVE, LAKE TAHOE, AT FOURTEEN, AND

PRECIPITOUSLY REALIZED I WAS NAMED FOR AN ALLMAN BROTHERS

SONG AROUND THE AGE OF SIXTEEN. AFTER A BRIEF STINT AS A

PSYCHOLOGY MAJOR AT SEVENTEEN, I MOVED FROM A HORSE FARM TO A

METROPOLIS OF FIVE AND A HALF MILLION AND HAVE SINCE RELIED ON

THE BANK OF AMERICA BUILDING IF EVER UNSURE OF HOW TO GET HOME.

Georgia TechPRINT DESIGN | CONTENT | PHOTOGRAPHY | FINE ART

Georgia Institute of Technology’s nationally ranked School of

Civil and Environmental Engineering is the third largest civil

engineering school in the United States with a design office

of one. What began as a fledgling internship in graphic de-

sign has bloomed into full renovation of the school’s branding

identity and supporting documents, as well as pioneering the

school’s widely distributed annual report, social media cam-

paign, graduate recruitment program, and more.

South Luangwa National ParkWEBSITE | PHOTOGRAPHY | CONTENT

Frequently spoken of by experts as one of the greatest wildlife sanctuar-

ies in the world, South Luangwa National Park is Zambia’s number one

wildlife destination. Upon visiting the park, I soon learned that though the

reserve was home to sixty species of animals and over four hundred

bird species, it offered no photos or web presence to host its rare and

wonderful wildlife. My job since has been to capture the park’s incredible

fauna through a camera lens and share these animals through designing,

developing, and curating a park website.

AnglicotechLOGO & BRANDING | WEBSITE | PRINT DESIGN

When I met Dave Cooper, a former US Marine Corps

Infantry Officer, he was beginning to build a defense system

technologies company from the ground up. Dave wanted

to provide a professional brand message that appealed to

potential clients while piquing the interest of potential hires,

too. Together we developed Anglictoech’s full brand identity,

website, and supporting print materials that have since

attracted both Dave’s workforce of top-notch engineers

and multiple multi-million dollar government contracts as

Anglicotech grows beyond its startup roots and into a true

industry leader.

The Campus StylePHOTOGRAPHY | CONTENT

The Campus Style delivers crème de la crème of campus

fashion, music, entertainment, and all things fresh to over two

dozen college chapters. Founded at my alma mater, Geor-

gia Tech, I’ve been a contributing writer and photographer

for the site since its infancy. After many phases and experi-

mentations, The Campus Style has evolved into a blogging

network with a large, youthful audience, and contintues to

serve as a place for a select group of like-minded students

to share their favorite finds with both their own campuses

and other collegiate chapters.

St. Mark’s Nursery SchoolWEBSITE | LOGO & BRANDING

Nursery school in New Canaan, Connecticut is competitive business.

With many options in the area, a successful web presence is

essential to meeting enrollment goals, especially for St. Mark’s

Nursery School (SMNS), a growing pre-school that needed a

professional website just weeks before school registration started.

Meeting the deadline, we developed SMNS’s site with internal

interaction in mind - parents can easily add and share secure

contact information, and staff can regularly update news, events,

and calendars with photos, videos, and newsletters through the

site’s intuitive content management software. The nursery received

a fresh logo, as well, updated to reflect the school’s new growth

and leadership.

Di Luzio, IncWEBSITE | LOGO & BRANDING

Meaning “of light” in Italian, the Di Luzio Family has founded a

namesake electrical contracting company in Pacifica, California -

well-reviewed and expanding throughout the Bay area and beyond.

Di Luzio, Inc was unhappy with a former web developer who

left their site with broken Flash galleries and unfinished business,

and found an atypical solution in cross-country design. Together,

we’ve created new logos and a fresh website that reflects the

well-established, friendly vision of the company.

CHAMPLOGO & BRANDING | PRESENTATIONS

The physical damage and human casualties resulting from the

January 12, 2010 earthquake in Haiti illustrate the devastating

impact of natural hazards on communities that are not adequately

prepared. The Caribbean is a region with an unusually high

exposure to both earthquakes and hurricanes, and Georgia

Institute of Technology’s Caribbean Hazard Assessment Mitigation

and Preparedness (CHAMP) project was formed to minimize the

impact of these events. A multi-disciplinary project bridging several

schools within the Institute, CHAMP required ground-up branding

and presentation materials.

marries the common coffee table and ambience lighting, incorporating the average

table lamp into furniture itself. Wick’s table-top pattern is inspired by the Voronoi Diagram, a

pattern that shows up in dragonfly wings and giraffe fur, and it can also be used to represent

disease outbreaks, forest fires, and the atomic charges of molecules.

Wick

VA Bene The average coffee maker involves more

than thirty steps and daily disposal of paper filters. Starbucks

alone is responsible for the use of more than 2 billion paper cups

and plastic tops, annually. VA Bene Portable Coffee Maker solves

these issues through simplifying a ritual that has remained largely

unchanged for decades. Coffee grounds are stored in the lid, and

water is warmed by the smart phone programmable base, which

heats liquid through magnetic induction. As the warmed water

flows through the grounds only as you tilt to drink, you receive the

freshest coffee possible.

Elise

The Elise Lamp is a ready to assemble, zero waste packaging

product. Contained at the point of purchase within a paint can,

which doubles as the lamp’s base, the light twists into the paint

can top, then aluminum petals can be placed around the light,

creating various levels of shading to suit your specific ambient

environment.

Hermes

Hermes is a product that allows fluidity between college studio and

a graduate’s first steps into the the realm of professional work - the

desk is expandable, portable, and maintains an air of professional

styling in its handicap accessible, lightweight bent plywood design.

In designing Hermes, a group effort, we addressed the primary

needs of several studio functions: materials storage, electronics

and tool power, adequate lighting, sketching, light table, and

modeling surfaces, and suitable space for engaging critique and

formal presentation.
