Dalbello Winery is a small and local vineyard with a select variety of wines. The client shared her three favorite labels from other vineyards as a guide for inspiration. Based on those labels, I created three unique options for the client and offered each of them in four different color ways. The image on the far right was their final choice.

I started my creative career in photography and still enjoy taking photos whenever possible. I am amazed at how far technology has come and the quality you get from your phone. I thought I'd share some of my photos from my recent trip to England. They were all taken with my iPhone and beautified in Photoshop.

Style Board is a fun shopping and wardrobe tool that allows you to pair single items together in one single screen. You can coordinate looks and share them on social media or buy entire ensembles with one easy tap. The app stores your sizes and style preferences and curates your choices so unavailable and irrelevant items are not shown. Purchased items are stored in your personal Wardrobe and can be used to mix with other new looks in the future. The app is still in the works and not yet available.

Through Storefronts Seattle I was given 3,500 square feet of free retail space for 3 months. I created ShopSeattle as an experiment in community, and to serve as a hub for local designers to create, showcase, and sell their work. I designed the interior space on a limited budget, created custom laser-cut displays, managed artists and inventory, photographed products, and set-up an eCommerce site through SquareUp.com.

Snowflakes is the first app I created with my partner Matt. I came up with the concept and UX/UI Design along with all of the assets. The app is sort of like digital stamp art. It allows users to create art by tap, with custom background and color options. There are two modes; single which displays an isolated snowflake with over 9,000  shape combinations; and multi where you can layer different colored, and shaped snowflakes.

We created Hearts on the engine of our first app, Snowflakes. Along with a few tweaks, we were able to create a completely new app by changing out the artwork. Hearts features loving quotes in the shape of a heart, interchangeable boarders, custom colorization, and 3 different background options (images, colors, and your own photos) allowing users to create custom Valentines and heart-themed artwork.

Annamika is a kaleidoscopic app featuring my artwork and UI/UX design with software written by Scott Collard. It received some great reviews in Gizmodo, CoolHunting, and PopSugar and made it into Apple's top 20 entertainment apps.

As a solo designer functioning as an entire creative department at Bucky, I wore many hats. One of my favorites was creating new prints. When I started, we had thousands of yards of unused fabric in the warehouse. Sleep masks are tiny, and our minimum order on fabric made over 100k masks. When it was time to create new designs, I came up with a solution to our excess fabric problem by gang printing five different print designs all on one roll of fabric. We offered it in 3 color ways, which created 15 prints instead of just 3 and resulted in over a ten-fold increase in sales of sleep masks (and no excess fabric).

I was tasked with the brand redesign for all packaging and the creation of new products. I created new boxes for the spa line, new tear-proof hang-wraps for the travel line, reusable canvas totes (and later boxes) for the sleep line, and a variety of coordinating items. In an effort to expand the current lines, I created kids products, travel slippers, travel bags (iPad cases and laptop bags) and did quite a bit of research on skincare involving buckwheat oil.

Working with friends and family as models and some stock photo backgrounds + Photoshop wizardry, I created several catalogs for Bucky with virtually no budget. Along with the website and packaging, the goal was to convey a sense of elegant relaxation, and stylish travel accessories.
