This brochure is both one of my most challenging and memorable projects for my time at NASA Headquarters. It proves the point to me (and every design teacher I've ever had) that visual communication is all about organization and hierarchy. It took a lot of back and forth work with the client to understand what they thought was important and to balance it all in a clean concise final product.

The final format was an 11x17" sheet tri-folded. In the end, it was very well received by its ultimate audience, members of the House and Senate of the United States Congress.

NASA - Domestic Violence Posters

While concepting this project I realized that there are many permutations of what can be considered domestic violence. It bothered me that the stock art I was perusing was very heavily husband on wife oriented. I sought a way to be ambiguous and to tell a larger story.

The image below is arresting and visceral, but it is also open-ended.

The image below was an alternate concept from the same project. I liked that it symbolizes the repercussions of domestic violence rather than the physical acts.

NASA - Trip Book Covers

Travel is a part of many businesses, and NASA isn't an exception. Trip Books are basically itineraries of where to go, who to meet and when to be there. While mostly a templated and easy to produce product, these trip books covers provide a nice touch of design and customized, trip-relevant imagery.

A more generic cover. The purpose of travel wasn't disclosed, so imagery of the target location was selected, as seen from the International Space Station at night. Hard to beat photo resources like this!
