Fun with Hip Hop (Illustration)

I recently had the great pleasure of illustrating this mural for my alma mater @villamariacollegebuf. Who would have thought that my first mural project would come from such a special place AND it would reflect a music genre that has shaped not just myself, but so many!

I really enjoyed this project from the moment I started sketching concepts. Now, I’d love to work on projects like this on a consistent basis! It’d be cool to see my illustrations in every city! #goals

If you have a chance to visit Villa Maria College in Buffalo, NY, please stop by their music building and enjoy this piece!

Create Within the Lines (Editorial + Digital Design)

As a Senior Graphic Designer with Academy Sports + Outdoors, I’m responsible for producing creative assets across multiple mediums. I spend about 90% of my time developing creative that’ll live in the digital space, and the remaining 10% designing print marketing pieces. Here’s a look at designs that I created for our Diamond Sports Baseball campaign that we ran last year. I included our printed magazine, elevated emails, and paid social assets.

Put Me In the Game Coach (Art Direction + Design)

How cool would it be to work with one of my favorite brands! It’s a dream that I pray comes true, soon! First, I took photos of items that I’ve purchased for my wife and myself over the years. Then, I dropped the retouched images into a few of Coach’s layout templates. I’m convinced that these could easily have been mistaken for actual Coach ads. Needless to say, I love how they came out! For phase 2, I’m going to create a few mockups of what my designs would look like on their merch. Stay tuned!
