I created a collection
Project Overview I created a collection of traditional pencil and ink illustrations focusing on character design, dynamic posing, and comic book aesthetics. This project highlights my foundational drawing skills through detailed, hand-drawn interpretations of highly recognizable characters. Key Contributions Traditional Drafting: Utilized graphite and ink to create complex character portraits and high-energy action scenes entirely by hand without digital assistance. Cross-Genre Styling: Demonstrated versatility by adapting to diverse established art styles, ranging from classic western comic books to high-impact manga and anime. Line Weight and Shading: Applied advanced shading and crosshatching techniques to build depth, texture, and high contrast lighting purely through manual rendering. Results This collection underscores a strong foundation in traditional illustration. It proves my ability to translate dynamic concepts directly onto paper, serving as the essential groundwork for complex visual storytelling and design projects.

The project required balancing professional medical credibility with a welcoming, family-friendly aesthetic to encourage engagement within the local community. Key Contributions Integrated Branding: Unified the visual language across diverse service lines—from clinical Speech & Language Therapy to community events like "Bridge's Backyard Movie & Game Night"—ensuring consistent brand recognition. Complex Information Layout: Designed the "Speech & Language Therapy" flyer to present clinical benefits, service lists, and insurance data in a scannable, non-intimidating format for parents. Event Marketing: Created high-energy promotional materials for community events, utilizing custom typography and vibrant color blocks to drive attendance and foster a sense of belonging. Call-to-Action Optimization: Seamlessly integrated QR codes and contact touchpoints to streamline the transition from physical print media to digital service requests. Results These assets successfully positioned the provider as both a clinical authority and a community pillar, contributing to a significant increase in service inquiries and event participation.

Project Overview I developed a high-energy, stylized character portrait featuring a bold "Green skin lady" aesthetic. The project focused on pushing the boundaries of color theory and digital line work to create a standout piece for a character-driven portfolio. Key Contributions Custom Character Illustration: Crafted a unique persona using a vibrant, high-contrast palette, emphasizing expressive features and a modern, "alt-culture" aesthetic. Vector Precision: Developed the piece using clean, scalable vector lines to ensure the artwork maintains its integrity across various digital and print formats. Advanced Color Grading: Utilized the Adobe ecosystem to experiment with neon-inspired skin tones and complementary hair and eye colors for maximum visual impact. Results The final illustration serves as a core example of my ability to blend traditional character design principles with a vibrant, modern digital style, resulting in a piece that captures attention in a crowded digital landscape.

I designed a high-impact
Project Overview I designed a high-impact promotional graphic for a healthcare provider to announce new after-school Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) sessions. The design focuses on clarity and accessibility, ensuring parents can quickly identify location-specific details and insurance compatibility. Key Contributions Targeted Information Design: Utilized a split-screen layout to distinguish between two different service locations (Pineville and University) while maintaining a unified brand feel. Accessibility & Clarity: Prioritized essential data—times, locations, and accepted insurances (NC Medicaid, BCBS, MedCost)—to reduce friction for families seeking specialized care. Visual Engagement: Combined professional photography with bold, clean typography to create a trustworthy and welcoming aesthetic for a clinical setting. Results The resulting asset provided a streamlined way for the organization to market recurring sessions across different regions, ensuring that complex insurance and scheduling information was digestible at a glance.
