The American Heart Association

The American Heart Association does invaluable work locally and nationally.

I worked to support these efforts as a designer for multiple years.

Death Wish Coffee | GRAPHIS New Talent Annual Winner 2018: Merit Award

Death Wish Coffee Co. is known for its insanely powerful brew. Using specially sourced beans and a unique roasting technique they are able to naturally achieve the status of World’s Strongest Cup of Coffee. Illustrations done using freshly brewed Death Wish coffee. These designs were ‘watercolored’ by myself using actual Death Wish coffee + grounds, then photographed and used to create ads. // Created during my time at Syracuse University

Ocean Spray | AAF National Advertising Competition (NSAC)

NSAC 2018: National First Place Winner (beating out over 140 teams)

Whoever says you can’t have it all never met a cranberry. Enjoy our plans book here.

After months of product research, focus groups, grueling hours, countless bottles of cranberry juice, designing, video editing, and so much more, we were beyond honored and proud to bring home a big win for our program. Administered by the American Advertising Federation (AAF), the NSAC is the nation’s premier student advertising competition. Each year, students create a campaign based on a case study for a corporate sponsor. Competition begins at the regional level, producing 15 semi-finalists; Newhouse teams have won seven of the past 12 Eastern regionals. Six finalists progressed to this year’s national competition, held in Chicago.
