My design philosophy and model is to develop and provide timely, concise, boutique-style graphics and collat-
eral by developing a strong understanding of each project’s parameters. My emphasis is on concepts and ideas,
not just ads and graphics. My strategy is to combine standards and practices in design and utilize various media
in a way that reshapes and fully represents each of my projects.

5. Lorelei Chai logo, packaging and marketing collateral.
This client worked closely with me to infuse her brand with all the
things she connected with. She wanted an illustrative style that
communicated her surfer, holisitc and green/organic brand. I de-
veloped many different styles for her, finally deciding on a typo-
graphical logo with a small illustrated flower and an illustrated
image all lending a nod to her Hawaiin roots and island lifestyle.
7. Synergy Fitness and Training Solutions logo, e-book covers and marketing collateral.
This client was a good friend and co worker who wanted to take her expertise and dedication to fitness
and holistic wellness to the next level. She wanted her brand logo to embody her overall lifestyle philosophy:
wellness, balance and their synchronicity --- a holisitc and balanced lifestyle through fitness well being.
We started with developing the brush stroke; a symbol that took influences from her eastern practices and
that actively represented both male | female, alpha | omega, body | mind | and spirit. The logo rotation and
variation is intentional. The purple logo symbolizes mind | spirit and transcendence. The dark gray logo
symbolizes body | strength and athleticism. Two symbol representations together convey the balancing of
opposites typically involved in wholistic living.
10. MeetingRX.com – Logo | Brochure | Poster | Mini Site
This client has years of experience and connections in the travel and hospitality industry and
decided to put them to good use by starting his own company offering these services.
After listening to his project details, needs, wants, likes and dislikes I was able to pinpoint a directive. Based
on that I came up with the concepts for logo and for the look and feel of the proposed campaign(s).
We decided on the best direction and solution for the project which is pictured to the left and in the
previous page.
We wanted to design a campaign that was quick, precise and
simple without being unsophisticated or over complicated. I knew that the client wanted a site that looked
clean, fresh and easy to access and navigate. He wanted it to appear very corporate and credible but also
luxurious and inviting.
The site is designed on one main page. The logo is centered and enlarged to also serve
as a scrolling image gallery. The vital contact form and travel inquiry is available
for easy access. The navigational bar has the necessary items that
function as pop up windows appearing on the main page.
