SMASH BROS. CHARACTERS
WALLPAPERS & MERCHANDISE
MARCH 2021 // Based on the artwork of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, this line of designs focuses on the game’s playable characters. These works are available for download as digital wallpapers in both horizontal and vertical formats. I also think they would make for great apparel, but copyright restrictions prevent any sales.
STOW-MUNROE FALLS HIGH SCHOOL CLUB APPAREL
SEPTEMBER 2018 // As a senior on the Speech & Debate team at Stow-Munroe Falls, I was tasked with designing the team’s apparel. The T-shirt is designed in the likeness of our hall-of-fame head coach (my Grandma). The designs were so popular with students that I was commissioned to design apparel for other clubs, including crewnecks for the yearbook staff.
EARTHBOUND LOGO ARTWORK
AUGUST 2019 // A floral rendition of the logo for Nintendo’s 1994 cult classic RPG Earthbound. This style of cherry blossom artwork grew popular in 2019 and spawned a wave of online merchandise. My design garnered thousands of interactions on Instagram and Twitter, and hundreds of sales on Redbubble.
TALLMADGE HIGH SCHOOL
CLUB APPAREL
SEPTEMBER 2018 // As a senior in my high school’s pep club, I was responsible for designing our club T-shirt and homecoming apparel. Each of the four colorways was sold to a different graduating class. “T-Town Beat Down” was one of our student section chants, while the back design features the slogan of our football team.
ANXIETY + ADIDAS
PRODUCT LINE CONCEPT
JULY 2019 // Whether as a parody of the Adidas brand, or an imaginary campaign by Adidas themselves — the concept was a line of apparel that normalizes and embraces conversations about mental health. A shirt that allows someone to wear their heart, literally, on their sleeves. The design is based on album artwork from a favorite artist at the time.
SMASH BROS. VECTOR ART
DECEMBER 2018 // Vector-based artwork from two of my favorite trailers leading up to the release of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. The “Plant Gang” refers to an online group of fans who enjoy playing as the depicted Piranha Plant fighter. My design spread among these fans and generated dozens of sales on Redbubble.
TALLMADGE HIGH SCHOOL
SNAPCHAT FILTER
FEBRUARY 2019 // Our high school was one of the only schools in the area without a Snapchat filter… I wanted to fix that. I took a photo of the main entrance of our school and traced it to create the illustration. To this day, the filter has been used in nearly 20,000 snaps and has been seen more than 800,000 times.
NINTENDO SOUNDTRACK CONCEPTS
MARCH 2020 // I’ve always had a special appreciation for video game soundtracks. Nintendo is certainly no exception — but they rarely publish official releases of their recent work. I’ve made a habit of ripping the audio files, compiling the music tracks, and designing custom album artwork to include these soundtracks in my collection. These are just a couple of my favorites.
STRANGER THINGS STICKERS
JULY 2019 // At the height of the sticker craze, I wanted in on the action — and the latest season of Stranger Things had just wrapped up. I recreated the typography style used in the show’s closing credits to create a three-inch sticker based on one of the season’s recurring jokes.
