Double Emergence

2024

This mock-magazine spread was created for my Digital Illustration class as an editorial illustration based on an existing article. I selected a Scientific American article on the double emergence of cicada broods in 2024, using the project to showcase both my digital illustration and publication design skills. I especially enjoyed this project because it combined my love of art and science!

The Phoenix

2025

The Phoenix is a poetry and art publication featuring student work. For the 2025 issue, themed “Attention and Distraction,” my cover design was selected from several student proposals. I worked closely with the editor in compiling the works and designing the inside and outside of the magazine. We made decisions about typography and layout, and went through many revisions. When the magazine was published, we had a release party, where students eagerly picked up their copies and passed them around to be signed by their peers.

Pop-Up Market Branding

2025

This logo was created for the Appalachian RC&D Pop-Up market program, which brings local organic produce to low-income communities for free. The logo needed to be friendly and accessible, and fit in with ARC&D’s existing branding.

By George Podcast Cover

2023

I created this cover during my marketing internship at A.D. Players. The task was to create a cover for a new podcast about the behind-the-scenes of the theater company, featuring interviews with actors and the people who help make shows happen.

 

For this project, I went through several stages of ideas and approval, and the final design is still in use 3 years later!
