Chicago Coalition for the Homeless
We were given a Chicago based non-profit of our choice, that had little to no branding and had to rebrand them from scratch. I chose the Chicago Coalition for the Homeless, and was able to interview some of its Speakers Bureau.
The Speakers Bureau is a group of formerly homeless individuals who share their stories with students and other groups to educate the public about the complications that lead to homelessness.
It was a wonderful learning experience, as well as a fun time designing their pamphlet!

Fun with Type
Typography is the solution to any design problem, and when I get the chance to make interesting things, I take them! I'm an obsessive doodler and I love designing things that I'd be proud to wear or hang up in my home.
I experiment across all kinds of different mediums. These are examples of typography items I've made that are either for sale, on my bookshelf, or used as leave-behinds.

Global Brigades DePaul Chapter
I traveled to Zurzular, Honduras with the Global Brigades in 2010. Our objective was to help build a school in the secluded mountain community to offer the children there education past grammar school.
Afterwards I stayed active in the group, and they contacted me to do some new branding. These are a few pieces of their print materials that were distributed throughout the year.

Illustrations
I was originally going to be a comic artist, and while it's not my area of study I still pursue it every day with illustrations and my weekly webcomic, Phuzzy Comics.
Bright colors and illustration, that's what I'm all about!

IDGAF University
This was a late-night experiment in logo design. I had reached a point in my academic career where I succumbed to senioritis, like so many of my peers before me. We tossed around the idea of a school dedicated to teaching students the common art of giving no fucks. And hey, we got a logo out of it! All we need now is to be recognized by the national board of education as an accredited university.

This House
Part of my student work from DePaul University. This was a typography and book formatting project where we were given free range to create content that was a guide through an area, thought, or feeling.
I chose to make a guide through my apartment, in the form of a catalog. All things in my home are for sale to the right bidder.

The Magic Test
A personal project that I took beyond my Biomechanics 101 class and actually self-published. Our task was to incorporate the basics of physics into some creative media, and so I wrote a short childrens' book.

Imagine 2050
During my time as a camper in Camp Firebelly 2011, we were put on three projects to rebrand CNC, the Center for New Community. I was put on the Web Team, and we were tasked with redesigning their blog, imagine2050.com.
We integrated our design with their CMS in place, Wordpress, and created a visually appealing design to help organize their abundant articles.
