Below are some of our most memorable projects. “UW–Madison in the Year 2198” is a two-page, full-bleed, centerfold illustration created for On Wisconsin magazine’s “Future Issue.” The issue marked […]

Holiday Cards

In my role at UW, I’ve been asked to design numerous holiday cards. I also relish in the opportunity to make my own each year. Being your own client is refreshing but still very much a challenge.

Student Planner

An annual project I look forward to each year is the student planner funded by the Center for First Year Experience. The student planner is given to every new student and sold at the Bookstore for anyone to purchase. It’s fun to think outside the box and have a little more fun with the design […]

They can also add humor or whimsy to the content. These are typically created in-house and are one of my favorite additions to a page or spread. […]

Hamel Music Center

The Hamel Music Center opened in fall 2019 as the new performance and rehearsal space for the UW’s Mead Witter School of Music. University Marketing was tasked with inventing a brand for Hamel. Reminiscent of the building’s exterior (and interior) walls, this abstract mark perfectly captures the venue’s personality, eccentricities, and character.

Bascom Hall Banners

One of my first tasks as a designer at University Marketing was to create a new series of banners for the iconic Bascom Hall. I used the new brand colors and textures to modernize a previous “W” design.
