Branding is one of my favorite parts of what I do. I love taking someone’s ideas and figuring out how to make them work together.

For TKC Catering, the starting point was connected letters, blue and gold, and a modern, upscale feel. From there, I designed the logo and business cards and set up the website and social media, giving the business a consistent look across it all.

There’s something really satisfying about seeing those first ideas turn into a brand someone is excited to put their name on!

Prime Video just expanded its "Shop the Show" feature to over 8,000 titles, so you can shop clothing and home decor inspired by what you're watching. See a sweater you like? Open the Amazon app, and it can surface similar options while you’re still watching. 👀

Discovering products inspired by what you’re watching is now easier than ever

Event promotion has become something I’ve focused on over the years, and it’s definitely some of my favorite work to do!

This summer I’ve been lucky enough to create the posters and event cover photos for the live music and events happening at Fish Ladder Music Park through Lansing Riverfront and the Community Foundation.

Music from Americana to country to funk to 90s, live bands to family events... It's fun to change gears constantly and create something that fits the personality of each event while still keeping everything connected.

If you have an event that needs its own look, I’d love to help with it!

I thought this was a pretty interesting read, especially for those working in social media or marketing.

More conversations are happening in DMs and group chats. People want actual experiences and communities instead of constantly being marketed to. And likes and follower counts might not tell us nearly as much as we think they do.

One stat that really jumped out at me: 70% of Gen Z engagement on Instagram happens through DMs and private story replies.

Definitely something to think about when we’re creating content. Would people want to share it with friends in the group chat?

Getting to take a place like Lansing Riverfront and turn it into something visual that actually feels like it belongs there is my favorite part of what I do.
