A wedding invitation illustration with hand lettered names. Notice the hidden initials in the border. They had this printed on a pearly postcard paper and it turned out beautiful.

A t-shirt design for Cherbourg Cyprus, a local Cincinnati bakery. The design includes an illustration of shakshuka, a middle Eastern dish of baked eggs in a spicy pepper and tomato sauce with melted cheese and herbs. At Cherbourg Cyprus, this dish is served in an individual cast-iron pan. This design was printed on the backs of white cotton t-shirts, so that if the employees wear aprons, the design would still be visible.

Another design for Cherbourg Cyprus, a bandana in their signature robins egg blue with white illustrations of baked goods radiating from their logo, a French baker. The baker is at an angle so the bandana could be folded at one corner and used to push hair back,

An arcade game mockup with hand-lettered naming. I imagined a sort of Godzilla fighting game with an emphasis on baked goods, therefore making it a food-fighting game.

A flier made for a child's workshop hosted by MEMOR Studio. These were printed on 11x17 paper and hung around the neighborhood to invite people to participate.

A postcard designed for an exhibition of photos depicting the realities of immigrating to the United States at the southern border.

Zine-work

Since a week-long course on book alteration I had the opportunity to take in the summer of 2016, I have gradually started becoming more and more interested in Book Arts.
---
Most of the book-based work I've made have been small zine works.
Most are one-off, individual works that are intensively designed and pored over until I was entirely satisfied with their craft. Some are hand-bound, fully hand-printed books.
Some are a combination of found objects and text.
​ All of them deal with people or events of significance from my own daily life--they are objects of appreciation for the mundane.
*These small zine works are an ongoing series*

The Internship Book and Process Show
​

In March of 2018, I had the pleasure of showing my BFA Thesis Exhibition to the public of Xavier University. As the culmination of over 4 years of personal artistic progress, and of over 8 years of story development, I self-published my comic book The Internship as my final project of my undergrad career. 

The entirety of the final 50 page book was entirely written, illustrated, and executed by myself.
Inspired by my childhood daydreams, the universe of the Internship, of Mod-men and WindoSIL, was a concept that I found myself consistently returning to throughout my teenage years, and that I figured I should pursue more actively once it became clear that I was going to continue with an art career. 

The Internship as a book was backed up by a long series of work done in varied printmaking methods, multimedia illustrations, and meticulously kept sketchbooks. The grouping of that work with the final book created a fully formed process show that illustrated the mulling over and realization of the internal concept.
​
It was the most long-term project I've ever undertaken.
