About Me

My photo
Baltimore, Maryland
I am a graduate student in the Publication Design program at the University of Baltimore. I think the process can be just as interesting, if not more so, than the results. I love reading, writing, well, sometimes I enjoy writing, skiing, hiking and being outdoors in general. I like exploring popular culture through graphic design, and I have a bad habit of not abandoning myself to my passions.

a sense of movement


This is one of a series of adds Toyota ran about eight or nine years ago. I really like the sense of movement in both the picture and the copy. I also like the white space at the top of the page. I think it compounds the feeling of open space found in the photo, and helps define the picture.

last semester's narrative project


This is my narrative project from last spring. As you can see, the project's format changed significantly from last semester. For instance, we could use sound, which was one of my favorite parts to this assignment. If I were to do it again, I would probably take better photographs, as a few in this video were blurry. I also would pare down the story and make it shorter. The show runs long, although much of that length stems from the ending song not cutting out soon enough. It could have been edited more effectively, but all things considered I was pretty happy with the results, especially considering I had to re-shoot everything after the first comp because my photos were entirely too dark. I hope you enjoy this foray into narrative hah hahs.
