Near the end of 2010, I was fortunate to be contacted by the team at Cincinnati Canstruction to redesign their website. I worked with them to create a design that established a stronger brand identity and improve the visual layout of the pre-existing content. I worked within Wordpress to develop a custom theme and using HTML, CSS and PHP. You can view the finished results by clicking the image above or visiting www.cincinnaticanstruction.org!

As the sole web designer of the film-based web project, I worked with John Gibson, professor at Northern Kentucky University, and a team of animators, video editors, and writers to create a site for a short animated series based off the film. It also promoted the film itself called "Revelation Trail. Feel free to click here or the image above to view the website.

For this project, I was put on a team with a graphic designer and video editor. Our goal was to create a website that would encompass the journey of several class projects as they evolved from start to finish. The site is no longer live, but you can view the demo here.

As web designer for the Beechmont Automotive Group, I redesigned the website for one of our companies, Johnny's Car Wash. I used a specific color scheme tailored to the company and their imagery to create and informative website for the average consumer.

This website was lovingly handcrafted by yours truly to showcase many of the unique and beautiful design projects I've worked on over the past few years. Using HTML, CSS, Javascript, and PHP, I have created an online portfolio to share my work with you.

Thank you for taking the time to enjoy my work! Let me know what you think! Feedback is always welcome.

To me, design is more than just appearance. It's being able to communicate effectively and make a positive difference. In July of 2010, my sister fell gravely ill and was hospitalized. Feeling helpless in the face of an unknown disease, I decided to reach out and help my sister using my talents. I created this website and used social media outlets as well as e-mail and phone to spread the word. It brought in over 55 responses from family, friends, and even strangers. This project illustrates the true power of design and its ability to bring people together.

I designed a flyer for the Auto Spa for the Beechmont Automotive Group. I collaborated with the marketing director of the business for this design project and he was delighted with the final product. The flyer went out to all customers who came through our doors.

I worked with a coworker, graphic and web designer James Roberts, on creating a series of cards for our customers to promote our dealerships and special offers. This is one example created especially for the Volvo of Cincinnati dealership.

I created a graphic piece to encourage customers to take advantage of the special offer on oil changes and the relocation of our new dealership. This design was selected for the final product.

I created this flash click-thru banner ad specifically for the new release of the Volvo S60. Using text and images from the Volvo website, I created the banner to inform customers and encourage them to interact with the banner in order to find out more.

One of the design challenges I faced was to create animated banners for the Beechmont Automile Group. I created these animated Porsche and Audi banners for our online advertising to attract attention and encourage users to click to see our specials.

As a web designer at the Beechmont Automile Group, I was given the challenge of creating a logo concept for the phrase "We Buy Cars". This is one of the solutions with all illustrations done in Adobe Illustrator.

I took on an illustration job for a client and created three different sets of mail icons for the client to choose from. The client was pleased with the different designs and ended up choosing one to use for their project. All images were created in Adobe Illustrator.

As part of a project for a fine arts course, I redesigned national currency to something that would be more aesthetically appealing. I decided to combine the conservational issue of wildlife preservation with commonly accessible currency to spread a message to the masses. All illustrations were done in Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop.

I frequently create artwork for online advertising. These were several of the tower ads that were selected for our online promotions that run monthly.

This design project was focused on attracting customers to our feedback web page. I created this design solution to appeal to customers as it is brightly colored and whimsical in nature.
