Mesa Verde Country's 2025/2026 Travel Planner
For the cover of the Mesa Verde Country Travel Planner, I wanted to reimagine the region's most iconic landmark with a fresh, creative twist.
While maintaining the tradition of featuring the famous Cliff Palace archaeological site, I used a vibrant collage technique to blend diverse local landscapes, native flora, and regional fauna into a single, cohesive composition. To elevate the design into an immersive, otherworldly scene that honors the area’s unique heritage, I transformed the daytime sky into a striking starry night as a direct nod to Mesa Verde National Park's status as an International Dark Sky Park.
E-Book Design + Creation
The Ultimate guide to Route 66
For The Ultimate Guide to Route 66, published by Visit USA Parks, I stepped into the dual roles of lead designer and co-author to bring America’s most iconic highway to life. While incorporating editorial pieces from external collaborators, I researched and wrote a significant portion of the guide's historical and regional content myself.
Beyond the copy, I drove the end-to-end creative direction and visual layout, crafting everything from the striking front cover and immersive, image-rich interior spreads to the final back matter. The resulting interactive e-book serves as a cohesive, highly engaging digital companion that balances nostalgic storytelling with seamless information design for modern road-trippers.
Bachelor of Fine Arts: Photography Emphasis
Happy Wild Things - Senior show
Happy Wild Things was a featured solo exhibition at the Gunnison Arts Center (November 2017), running concurrently with a separate showcase by artist Delaney Adrian. Happy Wild Things was the debut of my BFA senior thesis. The collection features black-and-white nudes of women immersed in the natural world, exploring raw feminine beauty, vulnerability, and the profound empowerment that comes from feeling entirely at home in one's own skin. Bridging digital and analog mediums, the images were captured digitally, converted into custom digital negatives in Photoshop, and then traditionally exposed and hand-developed in the darkroom to create the final physical prints.
