SaleSpark Logo Design (Modus Platform Rebranding)
Materials:
Traditional Materials: None
Digital Materials: Adobe illustrator CC, Photoshop CC, Modus Web Platform
About:
I lead all visual aspects of the SaleSpark rebrand of the modus platform (A selling and file-sharing platform utilized by the OneSolution Sales and Marketing Reps).
One aspect of the redesign involved the creation of a custom logo, one that would also influence the branding style and continuity of the entire rest of the site / platform. The concept phase went through many iterations, such as iconographic, text-prominant, and more - before settling on the final version. (Final Version is color image in top left corner) These black and white samples are but a few concept designs out of MANY that were created for this piece.

Traditional Materials: None
Digital Materials: Adobe illustrator CC, Photoshop CC, Powerpoint
About:
I was tasked with rebuilding our company Pitch Deck - a presentation used to onboard potential manufacturers (I.E. this pitch deck is utilized to close deals worth hundreds of thousands of dollars or more). The design includes an animated and interactive navigation slide (image 2 on upper right), with clickable linked slide icons, and each individual slide had a hidden link that also sent you back to the main navigation.

Compound Butter White Paper
Materials:
Traditional Materials: None
Digital Materials: Adobe Photoshop CC, Adobe Illustrator CC
About:
Every quarter, I would create a white paper on the current trending subject. In this case, the new hot-item in the food world was Compound Butter. This was a work in progress (hence the occasional "Filler" text in titles, but was aimed at informing the consumer on the many uses of compound butter and how to combine it with a variety
of spices and flavors.
I wanted the visual style to evoke the vintage designs of 1960's cookbooks, but with a more modern twist to it.

Website Creation and Design (Non-Contact Meters)
Materials:
Traditional Materials: None
Digital Materials: Adobe Photoshop CC, Wix Web-building Platform
About:
Non-Contact Meters reached out to me regarding the rebranding and complete rebuild of their commercial website. I was requested to build something simple, clean, and within branding spec for their color scheme and design. The website was to be something that looked nearly identical regardless of being viewed via desktop or mobile, and to have easily navigable task buttons programmed into the site. (The website was for the commercial engineer, so needed to easily provide information before they moved onto another distributors site)
The website rebuild included the planning and designing of the overall layout, typography, logo and banner creation, photo manipulation / composition, and more. HTML and CSS was learned on a need-basis, when the Wix platform perhaps didn't provide specifically what I wanted.

I assisted with the design and creation of the mechanical components of an educational display unit. This was to be part of two interactive Education Display Units in an agricultural museum.

Apparel - Screen Printing and Brand Modification
Materials:
Traditional Materials: None

About:
Every new quarterly campaign also required new Marketing and Promotion items. One such item - apparel, would require modifying existing logo branding into new and interesting designs.

We also had to keep in mind the limitations of traditional screen printing and visibility during video and production performances.
