BRAND DESIGN

Strategic visual identities built to create recognition, consistency, and trust across every customer touchpoint, from print to digital.

Case Study: PArkway pedal

Parkway Pedal

Building a cohesive event brand for a charity cycling experience

Parkway Pedal was a charity cycling event sponsored by Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage to bring the community together around fitness, fundraising, and local engagement. I was brought in to develop a complete visual identity that could promote the event across multiple touchpoints and create excitement before race day.

The goal was to build a recognizable, energetic brand that appealed to cyclists, families, and sponsors alike while clearly communicating the event’s purpose and value.

Case Study: Grimm Series Book Trailers

Grimm Series Book Trailers

Bringing Dark Fairy Tales to Life Through Motion

When internationally published author Kathryn Purdie needed a way to generate excitement for The Forest Grimm and Deathly Grimm, she turned to Rybread Studio to create cinematic book trailers that would capture the atmosphere of the stories and encourage readers to dive into the series.

As the sole creative on the project, I handled every aspect of production—from story development and illustration to animation, editing, sound design, and final delivery. The goal wasn’t simply to summarize the books, but to create an emotional experience that reflected the mystery, suspense, and folklore-inspired world of the Grimm series while staying visually consistent with the book cover art so readers would immediately recognize what the books would look like on store shelves.

Case Study: Potato Family Christmas

Potato Family Christmas

Bringing a whimsical holiday story to life through character design and illustration

When an author approached Rybread Studio with a completed manuscript for Potato Family Christmas, the goal was clear: transform a written story into a warm, engaging picture book that children and families would enjoy during the holiday season.

The challenge was to create a cast of memorable characters and illustrations that felt playful, expressive, and emotionally inviting—while staying true to the heart of the story.

INTERACTIVE

My interactive work combines design, storytelling, and UX to create clear, intuitive digital experiences that engage users through thoughtful visual communication.


Habitling

An AI-assisted web app built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that turns everyday productivity into a playful experience. As you complete daily tasks and build positive habits, you also care for a little dragon, helping it thrive by feeding it, playing with it, and giving it encouragement. I developed the concept, character design, illustrations, and limited animation, while directing OpenAI Codex to help structure, format, troubleshoot, and refine the application’s code.

Memory Game

This interactive memory game transforms my original artwork into a playful digital experience. Players uncover illustrated cards and match pairs, bringing the artwork to life through interaction and simple animation. I created the illustrations, visual design, and overall experience, then used OpenAI Codex as a development partner to help structure, code, troubleshoot, and refine the game.


SKETCHBOOK

A collection of logo explorations, character concepts, and spontaneous sketches that reveal the thinking behind finished designs.
