Product Design

A collection of children's alphabet blocks with a typographic twist. Each block stands for a different letter and a corresponding typeface. The six faces display an upper & lower case specimen, the designer, date, name, and type classification. A bonus ampersand block exhibiting five unique designs rounds off the set. They come neatly packaged in a sturdy canvas bag secured with a leather cord. Your little ones (or you) can learn the basics of typography and their letters all in one go.

Information Design

The Typographic Transit Authority is a study and comparison of six relatively similar sans serif typefaces. I used the familiar look of the subway system to keep the information approachable. This also proved beneficial in allowing me to highlight the similarities and differences of each design as their respective lines converge and separate.

Digital Illustration

Grimm's classic fairy tale The Fisherman and His Wife uses the element of repetition to expose the unquenchable heart of greed. And while the emphasis of the story is on the wife's continual cry for more I wanted to highlight the other side of the story. Each time the fisherman returns to ask for yet another wish to be granted we see the progression of the enchanted prince's growing impatience and its effects on the environment.

I've had the opportunity to work on several album covers for independent artists. Each provided the delightful challenge of paring audible and visual art with their own unique flavor.

Dew is an experiment in liminalism: music that exists on the threshold of consciousness and explores the power of subtlety, space and timbre.

Overcome is a series of solo piano improvisations. Each piece explores a single action and portrays a mood that might spring from it, creating a kind of musical snapshot for each act.

A New Splendor includes symphonic pieces for wind ensemble and orchestra.
