PROGRAMS
Tropical Fish Illustration
One of the first assignments for my Infographics class at UNC-CH was create this vibrant tropical fish. My professor provided a fish outline (similar to a coloring book page) and asked the class to perfectly trace it with the pen tool. The outline we created would serve as the base for our customized tropical fish. I used gradients, blurs and other elements in Illustrator to create this fiery tropical creature.

Morgantown Airport Advertisement Re-Design
During my town at AroundCampus Group, I spent a significant amount of time creating and revising advertisements for print publications. These responsibilities included redesigning outdated artwork for customers who had been with the company for awhile. This particular customer was going through a brand refresh so I created a new, modern design that aligned with the direction the company was wanting to go. This summer one of my interns told me that she still sees this advertisement in multiple locations on her college campus in Alabama!
