Kaleidoscope Kafe | Capstone Project

“Kaleidoscope Kafe” is food theme-park design concept for my Capstone project. I work in a team of two as an illustrator and graphic designer using programs such as Procreate, Adobe Illustrator, and Photoshop to create a variety of character designs and themed graphics based on food-items.

Hixson Academy | LJ Media
Remote | April 2023- June 2023

“Hixson Academy” is an e-learning project commissioned to LJ Media, where I assisted as a freelance graphic designer and character artist. Using Photoshop and Illustrator, I created a unique range of character designs and backgrounds to be used in the “Hixson Academy” training game. These characters and graphics were created with the intention of bringing visual harmony using color theory, shape, and composition.

Murder On The Hill | Stephanie Coffing (Client & Author)
Indianapolis, IN | January 2023- May 2023

“Murder On The Hill” is a horror, mystery project written by Stephanie Coffing that was translated into a 3D puzzle game by myself and a team of four. As the project manager, lead illustrator, and graphic designer, I led my team toward the stages of modeling and programming by making a blueprint of concept art and themed graphics with the use of Photoshop and Illustrator. To better organize my group, we used Slack and Trello for communication and task management.

★ “Wyatt’s Wind” by Stacy Allgeier
★ “The Stray” by EJ Tesiero-Miller and Robin Miller

★ “See You Laters” by Stacy Allgeier

Each of these authors were wonderful to work with, and these books gave me the opportunity to gain experience working with a client on story-based illustrations. In my time at PenIt Publications, I personally illustrated "The Stray" and "See You Laters", and I worked with a team of fellow students to design "Wyatt's Wind". My tools of choice were Adobe Photoshop and Procreate for iOS, all illustrations were created digitally after being presented with the story/script.
