Logo and Business Card creation for a high-end custom costume maker client! Not just any business card would do for such a business. Left is the "dream card" but deemed too difficult to reproduce (time and labor intensive). On the right is the compromise. Illustrator

They wanted a refresh on their look. I created the logo first, then they wanted a new menu. The photo in the background is also by moi, as well as the menu design itself. I'm getting hungry looking at it! (and the food is AMAZING) Logo: Illustrator Menu: InDesign Photo credit: jn designs, llc

A member of the marketing department for a major, locally-based, international pool distributor contacted me to create some logo options for their new line of bar-b-que grills.

With the rise of breast cancer diagnoses increasing everyday, here is a beacon of hope. Gina Pausina Cherry, a breast cancer survivor with a background and career in dance, wanted to create an outlet for exercise as well as a rooted touchstone for others in the same situation - people who understand it all. I mean what better thing than a dance troupe? Synonymous with NOLA, Mardi Gras, and fun! Illustrator (I did not do the website)

I did a custom compass rose with the SMS initials and sent this sheet as the presentation - basically different font options for the logo. They went another route. (A friend of theirs made one for free.) Illustrator

Northshore Roller Derby wanted to rebrand. I presented 3 options, they chose this one - including selecting the colors. Hand-rendering vectorized in Illustrator.

A peek into the process: This one was fun! One of the local roller derby leagues decided to rebrand. Again, our trusty creative brief gave way to the final design. Hand-drawn | Vectorized and colorized in Illustrator

A peek into the process: It started with the brief... I did some image reference searching for acrobatic poses and one struck me. I played around with simplifying the pose and image, then made a few different variations.
