Designed for Decopac's spring collection of 2023.
I was tasked with utilizing the popular gnome trend and gearing it towards an easter/spring theme with bunny motifs and pastel color palettes. I also included mushrooms in the set to incorporate a cottagecore vibe to go along with the gnomes.
For the mother's day set, I took a lot of inspiration from Mexican celebration culture, papel picado, and butterfly imagery to design the patterns and sugar decorations. I added floral elements to push the idea further into the mother's day/spring-specific feel.

A personal favorite time of year for me! Fall aesthetics are ones I really enjoy working in. I was tasked with illustrating several items for the collection, including all of what's shown below. Adding in the surprise blue color allowed for the traditional elements to feel more fresh and trendy with the usual incorporation of the burnt oranges, reds, and yellows of the season.

Additional digital Photocake designs that can be printed on cakes with edible inks.
A collaboration done for Liz Schmidt's Canine Circus plush kickstarter. I was tasked with designing a washi tape and an enamel pin featuring the characters in the plush collection. The guest artists were given full creative freedom over the outcomes and I took a lot of inspiration from vintage circus themes co-mingled with the color palette of the campaign to maintain a level of consistency across the pieces. Both of my items sold the most units of the stretch goal products.
While working in-house at ArtSkills I had the opportunity to head a revamp of two Build & Sculpt kits. The concept existed previously as a single-sculpture product and was expanded upon in a larger 3-sculpture kit structure. I designed the package and instruction booklet as well as sampled and control tested the kit contents to ensure all elements functioned as intended.
During my time at TrendSetters Ltd. I was the lead designer and project manager for Lootcrate's client account. I managed and designed on all projects in the pipeline, designed product and packaging for a dozen items, handled set up of production files and manufacturer communication and sampling.
One of products I worked on was a cookie cutter set featured in the July 2018 Wizarding World™ crate. I was tasked with pitching ideas for a 4-character cookie cutter set featuring elements from the brand kits for Fantastic Beasts™ adapted to fit the theme and needs of the product. Additionally, I designed the packaging and assured all elements abided by the guidelines of the style guide.

In the summer of 2021 I pitched the idea of a collaborative enamel pin collection to my pals over at Catmint Studios and after a bit of brainstorming we came up with the criteria that would set in motion an ongoing series of blind bag pin collections that we're still expanding on to this day. Together we've produced 3 different 12-pin sets of blind bags, with both parties creating 6 designs each.

In 2017 I launched my own independent storefront selling my art on products like enamel pins, stickers, lanyards, art prints, and keychains. Since then I've launched a successful Kickstarter campaign and raised over $14,000 from the original $650 goal, branched out my offerings to drinkware and car decals, and expanded my audience across social media to over 30K followers. My biggest joys come from expressing myself through my art and growth as both a product designer and an illustrator.
