We stand proud having designed annual reports, billboards, and multiple branded assets to elevate the impact of their work in the Greater New Orleans region.

The 2017 Ace Hotel New Orleans "Queens of New Orleans" calendar was developed and designed with young creatives from YEP Design Works, during my tenure as Lead Design Mentor. The calendar's popularity produced overwhelming demand and sold-out two print production runs.

Calendar introduction: these are the living, breathing queens who resonated with the creative youth in our design studio in the month of October, the year 2016, on the corner of Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard and Terpsichore Street. Some you know; they have earned a public title of “Queen.” Many are mothers, caretakers, advocates - mighty and too often minimized roles traditionally held by women in our society. We celebrate them and a future where women, girls, and all who identify in between have all the power and choice they desire.

Silicon Valley Rising sought to build a national movement and galvanize drivers and app workers who were fighting for living wages, union membership, and essential benefits from gig corporations like Uber and Lyft.

We created a logo and brand identity for Gig Workers Rising that symbolized the upward mobility and necessity of their campaign. We collaboratively developed a recognizable brand that clearly embodied their work and allowed for massive brand asset production. Their work is recognized nationally and continues to be a force in the fight for the rights of gig workers in California and across the country.

Project Peaceful Warriors (PPW) provides trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness programming to schools -- equipping students and educators with tools they can use to reduce stress, combat burnout, and lead happier healthier lives.  

We created a logo and brand identity that might offer those who engage with it an experience akin to their work. We designed  branded apparel and retail products that communicate their core values so that staff and supporters could share by wearing.
