Recent Print & Layout projects: HWY 62 Open studio art tours
When I was initially contacted to help the non-profit organization Hwy 62 Open Studio Art Tours in creating a print map detailing the art studios and sponsors participating in the event, I was excited for the challenge. Little did I know, my stint as a cartographer would turn into doing all the graphic design for the 2022 event!
Key deliverables were the 100-page catalog + print map insert, both massive undertakings and I’m incredibly proud of the results. Some of the primary goals of the project: clarity, legibility, accuracy, and establishing/reinforcing brand recognition of existing logo+fonts.
Note: I was brought back for the 2023 event and am currently in the process of assembling this year’s 100+ page catalog, map, and associated graphics.
Corporate Print production & Layout
I spent four years as the lead graphic designer and communications specialist at Honeywell on the Global Sales Operations team. During this time, I worked closely with the marketing teams to ensure that the Honeywell brand was represented clearly and cohesively. A significant part of my role included large event work and all the associated print collateral, from name badges and on-site signage to hard copy schedules and event catalogs + brochures. This role required extensive experience in offset and digital printing technologies, as well as in-depth knowledge of color management and production strategy. My performance was driven by quality control including accuracy, organization, and attention to detail from prepress to final product.

DESIGN & MARKETING PACKAGES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
This is an example of a package I put together for a small health food store. It included logo design and delivery of files in all necessary formats, brand design guide to help the business adhere to a uniform aesthetic, various print ads, business cards, in-store signage, plus simple merch items. Some clients opt for large-scale event signage and other elements such as web graphics. Each package is completely tailorable to the unique needs of your business!
