Illinois Native Plant Society Brochure
My task was to design a trip-fold, introductory brochure for the non-profit organization that reflected their commitment to native plants conservation and mission of connecting people with plants in their home communities across the state. Many photos were included to show the activities of the INPS in this regard, and iconography of various Illinois native plants as background elements. I used a natural color theme derived from the organization’s logo.

Pollinator Yard Signs
I designed these signs using photography from my home gardens to showcase native plants and promote a safe landscape for the pollinators that depend on them. Illustrator and Photoshop were used to combine elements for the sign design. I often create designs that incorporate natural elements and help to promote awareness on the importance of preserving our natural world.
DIRT Report Infographic
I designed this graphic based off imagery and statistics from the original 2018 DIRT Report published by the Common Ground Alliance, an organization that compiles statistics on the causes of underground utility and infrastructure construction damages in order to help facilitate remedies to future incidents. This graphic is for a 2019 editorial article in the industry trade magazine American Locator.
