Not every project needs a full case study. Over the years, I've had the chance to work on a wide range of creative projects, from passion projects and one-off collaborations to campaigns, illustrations, murals, and brand moments that I'm especially proud of. This is a collection of work that's worth a look.
MURALS
I've designed and painted murals all over San Diego, helping businesses, nonprofits, and public spaces turn blank walls into something people actually stop and notice. My work ranges from branded environments and large-scale commercial murals to community-driven public art projects. I handle everything from the initial concept and illustration to the final paint on the wall. Along the way, I've also helped secure public arts funding and grants to bring projects to life, including a mural for the Carlsbad City Library.
Kawhi Leonard Billboard Campaign
One of our more unexpected projects was designing a billboard campaign aimed at recruiting Kawhi Leonard to Los Angeles during the 2019 NBA free agency frenzy. The billboards generated national attention and were picked up by major media outlets across the U.S. and Canada as fans speculated about Leonard's next move following his NBA Championship run with Toronto. It was a fun opportunity to blend sports culture, design, and a bit of playful storytelling into a campaign that reached far beyond the billboard itself.
Hank Green’s Book of Good Times
In 2025 I created a series of custom hand-drawn illustrations for The Book of Good Times, a Kickstarter-backed interactive book by Hank Green. The artwork helped bring the book's imaginative world to life and supported a campaign that attracted more than 14,000 backers and raised over $400,000.
According to Need | 99% Invisible
We partnered with the team behind According to Need, the acclaimed 99% Invisible podcast series exploring homelessness, housing policy, and the systems that shape life on the margins. Our involvement included helping develop the name, creating the visual identity, producing and art directing the accompanying photography, and contributing to the website design. The project went on to receive the prestigious Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Award, one of the highest honors in broadcast journalism, recognizing its depth of reporting and storytelling. It was a rewarding opportunity to help shape a project that combined thoughtful design with meaningful social impact.
