This video was actually made to accompany my application for a job at Jagermeister. Unfortunately, they had already hired someone before I spent all weekend working on it.
I created this video for the 2017 holiday season for Protocol NY. I made a previous stop motion utilizing music equalizer bars and thought presents could work really well for the same concept.
I was fortunate enough to be able to make it down to Nashville for the 2017 total solar eclipse with my family. I created this stop-motion from a series of photos I took periodically while waiting for totality to occur.
This video was made with writer Chris Gayomali as a promotion for his story on bulletproof coffee.

This video takes the premise of life auditing, which involves organizing your goals and ambitions. When I saw the arrangement of the color coded Post-It notes used, it reminded me of a still frame from an audio frequency spectrum. From this idea, I made a complete video using the Post-Its as bars in the spectrum. Music by John Potts. Pen on paper.

Sometimes the projects I do never really see the light of day, as with this illustration originally conceived for the New York Times story on lease-reassignment app, Flip. While not as noble as gracing the pages of The Grey Lady, we did find a use for this piece in Flip's weekly newsletter.

I was the editor-in-chief of my school's yearbook during my senior year of college. Unfortunately, I was the only one on staff. I did the layout and design of every page, took the majority of photos, and wrote most of the copy (with a great deal of help from my friend Zachary Parker)— all while working another full-time job throughout the summer after I graduated. My secret? Lunch hour naps.
Originally proposed and designed in 2008 (on the first version of Adobe's Creative Suite mind you) ULM's literary journal, The Helicon, was to be resurrected after a 6 year hiatus. Unfortunately, before the book could be printed we lost our director, along with most of our funding. When the new director arrived, it seemed very unlikely that the journal would ever be printed. For every year that passed I created a cover with a new date (2008, 2009, 2010..) only to see it go nowhere, but the editor (Zachary Parker) kept to it. Nearly a year after we graduated Zach managed to secure funding and get all the approvals needed. In 2012, we finally had our copies.
