Designing AccessData’s Website
This has been one of the most rewarding projects to worked on. After finishing the site, the client loved the look-and-feel so much they used my designs to influence the company brand going forward. Managing and designing such a large project, 250+ pages, took complete dedication with original designs throughout the whole site. The two EE developers worked tirelessly and launched the site in record breaking time. We also created a secondary site to promote their 30th anniversary. Here’s a link to the actual site: http://accessdata.com
Brightening a dreary office with glass art
I had the opportunity to design glass art for an office in London. The software company wanted to boost their employees moral by making the office atmosphere more creative. The large illustrations were done in Adobe Illustrator, pulling from the images, icons, and illustrations I used in the past to develop the brand.

They love the logo and have used it to influence their brand image across all collateral.
A Special Website for a Special Author
Tricia Martin wanted a website designed especially with her taste in mind. Even though she sells her books on Amazon, she wanted a site where people can get to know her better, read about all her books, and follow her blog posts. We thoroughly enjoyed working together and will continue to work on the site as the days go by. Her beautiful heart reflects in her writings and after reading her work I found myself feeling very calm and peaceful. Her website can be viewed at: soulbreakthru.com

Companies like McDonald’s, Taco Bell, KFC, CKE, Pizza Hut and Jack In The Box are all members of CrewSafe Alliance. CrewSafe came to me asking to come up with some ideas for a national campaign to draw attention to independent franchise owners to join the alliance. Using bold colors to match their website, I wrote fun attention getting headlines and imagery to motivate membership. These three inserts stack one on top of each other and is inserted into a die-cut folder to show headlines on the top.
