Illustrations and character animations created for Mercury’s nationwide OOH campaign, “More Made Possible”. The energy of athleticism combined with tactile graphics and movements allowed for a modern and timeless aesthetic, right on par with Mercury’s forward thinking around the banking experience.

Seasonal brand design
Feed The Wife is a family-owned bakery in Taipei. We collaborated on a suite of graphics and images for seasonal branding that encompassed their story of love sparked by baked goods. This was used across packaging, curated merch, and event pop-up experiences.
Founders, Jack and Caitriona Lee, and I met in Taiwan and I’ve loved working with them.

Animated short
A dog visits NYC for a weekend. Full film seen here.
Created in conjunction with a small art show, later titled “Just Visiting” inspired by 6 months living on the Northeast side.
This short animation was created by hand and digitally, then projected inside a physical newspaper stand. It’s an unfinished work:)
Accompanying this was also a set of iconography and a large hand sewn piece.

A set of illustrations for the youth program of the Utah Jazz.
This was a new endeavor for the Jazz brand team. It came to be the illustrated mascots seen here: the Grizzly, the Basketball, the Beehive, the Hoop, the Hand, the Sax, and the Mountain. Each image pulled reference from Utah, its culture, and heritage.
