  • Marketing Case Study: Creating a Foundation

    Marketing Case Study: Creating a Foundation

    This case study was fun when searching for results, as it was the first chance for me to ramp up and establish a strong social foundation for the company, and to help connect the brand to the customers and users of the product. Creating a connection between the brand and user was equally as important…

  • Ask a Real Paleontologist

    I came up with the idea to have fans of Discover the Dinosaurs pose questions about dinosaurs to a real life Paleontologist, Dr. Fastovsky. This was not only to help with creating a solid and organic form of engagement, but it also provided me with a simplified form of creating content to then disperse back…

  • iPad Interactive Portfolio Demo (Newsstand)

    iPad Interactive Portfolio Demo (Newsstand)

    This is a demo for part of my portfolio. This was created using features from InDesign’s interactive/media tools. There are some slight nuances when working with these tools, but eventually it all becomes similar to basic HTML and PowerPoint (depending on how in-depth you want the design and function to be). Although this is part…

  • Panel Strength Infographic

    Panel Strength Infographic

    This is the proven strength of the Dakota Panel boards. Through quite a bit of testing I was charged with taking all of the information and interpreting it into something that both salesmen and buyers can understand in a much more visual way. I love doing infographics since I feel that they better represent the…

  • Motivational Poster

    Motivational Poster

    I guess it sort of says it all, really. We have so many more paths and decisions to make, but this one should be the easiest. Oddly enough it seems to be human nature for us to get hung up on something that will never improve our state, yet not take the time to try…

  • JK Clothing Tee

    JK Clothing Tee

    Just Kidding Clothing is a local apparel company located in the Twin Cities area. The main idea of this project was to create the company’s logo in a unique but still legible to the public looking at the design. This was a very fun project since I was able to have a lot of creative…

  • Poster Design – Safety Poster

    Poster Design – Safety Poster

    This was a little more recent poster design I made for a safety milestone of 5 months. I’m a big fan of the old school labels and logos and have decided that I want to start emulating those designs a bit more. Since I wasn’t sure where to start I began researching the more classic…

  • Infographic – Website Statistics

    Infographic – Website Statistics

    This infographic was based off of my current statistics to Interviews at Random (dot com). Though I wish I could have had some greater depth to the information from programs such as Google Analytics, I still think it was nice to put things into a visual perspective. What’s most amazing for me is the fact…

  • Catalog Concept – UltraDeck

    Catalog Concept – UltraDeck

    Cover page with some examples of how the new UltraDeck catalog could look. The main reason for the update was because there was too much clutter in the older catalog. What’s great about this product is that everything can be very stylized but will still hold the same navigation since the boards themselves were photographed…
