Now in Stores

Only a few months after starting my job at Enchanté Accessories. I was able to see my designs produced and sold at stores (Burlington Coat Factory, Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Ross, to name a few...).
Be sure to look out for them!

Line Lists

Line Lists. A concept which was foreign to me before working at Enchanté. At Enchanté I take the different product line ideas the product manger has in mind and I then draw them out digitally for them to show buyers. These drawings are called Line Lists.

School of Visual Arts Pre- College Program (Week One):



I was given the privilege to be a Teacher's Assistant to thirteen talented High School Students from around the country. The class was a typography class taught by Benita Raphan (http://www.benitaraphan.com/). During the first week I was able to create and teach a lesson. My lesson was to create a book cover that was an autobiography about yourself using ONLY type. The students were able to hand draw there own type, collage existing type, or create it all digitally. I hope you enjoy the results as much as I did.

Series of Timeless Classic Books


For a Thesis, I decided to take five classic books, which I felt all taught timeless lessons and created a book series. There is a humanly element on each cover to go with the theme of emotions and lessons learned. I also re-designed the first two pages of each book.

This was a semester long project. I studied each book and the period it was written in depth.

The task was to take a fairy tale and interprete the story using any medium.
I read the Brother's Grimm version of cinderella and based my project on her wishing tree.
