Here is a sample of my graphic design work. If you'd like to work together on a future project, let's connect!

Project: Logo, Website Design & Character Illustration
Tools: Adobe Illustrator & Adobe Photoshop

Details: This is an unused concept for a website that allows users to search a directory of wheelchair-accessible locations searchable by city, category, name, etc. and rate their accessibility.

Project: Logo Creation

Project: Print Advertisement
