CONTRACTED DESIGNER & DEVELOPER
Blip Billboard’s head of sales recruited me for his start-up, Ruck Delivery. I was tasked with creating several webpages to improve upon their consumer website with fast turnaround times and only 3.5 hours max to write copy, design, revise, and set up each webpage in the Wix website editor. I was able to improve their Ruck Driver app by setting color, hierarchy, and size based on usability for WCAG standards as well as write and design their social posts. Ruck also had me design emails that were previously undesigned and boosted open rates by 25 times from a 0.5% open rate to 12.5%.

Advising on their current driver app, I added hierarchy using colors, type sizing, and layout adjustments. Following all WCAG standards and training their developers, we were able to roll out changes to developers within one month of starting the project.
BEFORE
AFTER
All colors were swapped with accessible versions like the standard #FFF and #000 were replaced with #F1F1F1 and #121212 for eye strain.
BEFORE
AFTER
The sign-up process was improved by graying out buttons before the user had submitted a photo. Typography and sizing for hierarchy was also improved upon to guide the user’s eye.
BEFORE
AFTER
The app menu needed reorganization. I achieved this by cleaning up the header, utilizing proper alignment, and recoloring items to showcase where users were in the app.
BEFORE
AFTER
The job board was improved with several color indicators to guide the eye as well as size adjustments and an aligned header for organization.
Ruck was a high content design gig without many hours of turnaround per piece. This allowed me to push myself, learn to communicate well within the first message, and deliver at a rate I hadn’t previously challenged myself with. Through copywriting, design, emails, web development, and user experience and user interface, I improved their products and messaging while keeping within their given timelines.

START UP
While contracting for the startup incubator Inception, I designed the app concept for Bookshelf, a video catalog and parental control platform. Bookshelf enables parents to create a permission hierarchy for their children, allowing access to curated video content from YouTube, Vimeo, and other sources while blocking inappropriate material. Additionally, it features a community page where parent admins can share and discover playlists, making it easy to expand each family’s video library with trusted recommendations.

VISUAL DESIGN SYSTEMS
I developed the ADKOM icon library to create a cohesive visual system for the company’s extensive range of out-of-home (OOH) advertising platforms. The icons were organized into two distinct categories, electric and print. using a bold green lightning bolt for digital media and an orange swoosh for print formats. This visual identity made it easier for partners to quickly navigate ADKOM’s offerings and communicate options with clarity and consistency.

As part of an undergraduate design project, I created a fully responsive website for Aspire, a local nonprofit dance studio that teaches children Jazz, Contemporary, Ballet, and Hip Hop. Though the project was a conceptual redesign, it followed Google’s Material Design system to ensure a clean, intuitive interface across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. Special attention was given to accessibility standards and legal compliance, making the design inclusive and aligned with real-world usability requirements.

Living Almonds was a personal passion project focused on creating a clean, environmentally friendly line of flavored and spiced almonds. I developed the full concept design, including the logo, website, and packaging for a variety of globally inspired flavors like “Miso Sriracha,” “Thai Curry,” and “Mango Coconut.” One standout flavor, “The Spice Melange,” paid homage to the Dune series with a sci-fi twist. The branding emphasized natural ingredients, sustainability, and bold, adventurous flavor profiles, combining visual storytelling with mindful design.
