Black Lives Matter ✊🏿
2021
As a person with white privilege, I will never fully understand the Black and Brown experience in America. No matter how much I educate myself and others, I will never share these experiences due to my privileges within our racist culture. I can, however, use my platform to inform, educate and promote social justice. It's not about me; we must listen to our POC brothers, sisters and everyone in between and use our voices to promote change in our society.

"The Birds" Poster Series
2017
As a designer, Saul Bass is one of my biggest inspirations. He utilizes his unconventional art style to create powerful imagery, simultaneously engaging and informing his audience. This is most notable in the title sequence of Alfred Hitchcock's groundbreaking 1960 psychological horror-thriller film, Psycho. I created a series of movie posters for The Birds, another notable Hitchcock film, that I reimagined in the style of Bass. Late Modernism and the Minimalist design movement continue to inspire my work, especially in conjunction to Bass' unique style.

All Nature Has a Feeling
2017
All nature has a feeling: woods, fields, brooks Are life eternal: and in silence they Speak happiness beyond the reach of books; There's nothing mortal in them; their decay Is the green life of change; to pass away And come again in blooms revivified. Its birth was heaven, eternal is its stay, And with the sun and moon shall still abide Beneath their day and night and heaven wide. - John Clare
