The project began with a branding and packaging analysis of GE's current Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs. After determining the direction of the brand, the design was created based on the brand positioning of being straightforward and informative. There are two categories of softlight and daylight, each with a single pack and multi-pack.
Information on the packaging highlights the benefits of CFLs and urges the consumer to go beyond just changing light bulbs to help the environment. Tips and a website are provided for further consumer education.Packaging, Graphic Design, Design2010 -

This media kit promotes the Outdoor Adventure Center (OAC) at The Ohio State University. The OAC provides outdoor based activities for the Ohio State community. The purpose of the media kit was to let more people know about the unique activities the OAC provided, such as backpacking trips, canoeing trips, and team building exercises.

As the largest passenger rail network in the US, Amtrak maintains hundreds of stations across the country. Besides helping passengers find their way, signage helps to keep Amtrak’s brand identity consistent from the smallest unstaffed stations to their largest stations.
Various Amtrak signage projects included creating sign layouts, message schedules and looking over shop drawings. I also was involved in the 2010 revision of the Amtrak Graphic Standards Manual.Signage, Wayfinding, Environmental Graphics2011
