DESIGN

The Badger Herald

During my time as managing editor for The Badger Herald, I designed several print editions, infographics and more. One edition I’m especially proud of was titled “Hook, Line and Sinker.” I created all of the art and layouts.

Another edition I’m proud of is called “UW Women’s History,” which came out for Women’s History Month. Due to a last-minute change in content, I prepared the designs and copy for this cover and center fold in just eight hours.

Alexander Ranch, Inc.

Working as a freelance designer for Alexander Ranch, Inc., a California-based produce company, I had the opportunity to completely redesign a website.

Here is the link to their brand new website. If you’d like to compare my work with the previous version of their website, check out this awesome tool called the Wayback Machine.

UW School of Journalism and Mass Communication

As a communications intern for the UW-Madison School of Journalism and Mass Communication, I designed several flyers, advertisements and more. Here are a few of the designs that I’m most proud of.

Along with the rest of the flyer, I designed both of these campus and building maps.

In another part of my coursework, I was assigned to rebrand a business of my choice. I chose Smoky Jon’s, a highly-rated barbeque restaurant in Madison. Here is a link to their original website, and below are some of the designs I created for a fictional rebrand of the restaurant.
