Pixel Planet Today
environmental, creative, research
The project that kicked off my drive to combine environmentalism, design, and technology. Pixel Planet Today, initially a 'Design 365' project, combines pixel art designs with facts about the planet. The project core is found in its social media posts, but it has since expanded to include eco-merch, blog posts, and other content.
Wasted Space
environmental, creative, software, interactive
Wasted Space is a classic arcade game that drives home the idea of reusing and recycling. In the game, players fly a spaceship through endless enemies and collect materials from destroyed ships in order to upgrade their own. In pixel art fashion, environmental education in game isn't as in your face as other projects, making it a lot more approachable to casual players.
byteOS: Notes
environmental, software, interactive
A simple note-taking app inspired by, you guessed it, pixel art. byteOS: Notes is designed to be as lightweight as possible, making it eco-friendly while also helping you break-free from AI and the cloud. The basic version of the app is published on the Google Play Store, but plenty of updates are in the works to add more features and functionality.
NE Sheds
creative, client
NE Sheds is a shed and outbuilding retailer based in Nebraska. In redesigning and rebuilding their website, I worked closely with the owners to create a site that fit both their vision, improve SEO, and enhance user experience.
Nebraska Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired
creative, client
The Nebraska Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired initially reached out to me about redesigning their logo for their 20th anniversary, but has since led to additional design projects like business cards and social media images. I am incredibly fortunate to continue working with an agency that provides necessary services to those that need it.
Eva Therapeutic Wellbeing
creative, client
While I was working as a Multimedia Work Study Student in the Center for Entrepreneurship and Rural Development office at UNK, I was approached to build a website for a new small business, Eva Therapeutic Wellbeing. The owner, Eva, and I clicked very early on in the process, and she has been a joy of a client ever since. Since the initial build, I have worked with her on adding more content to the site, as well as keeping information up to date.
Beavercreek Marketing
creative, software, interactive, client
While I worked at Beavercreek Marketing between 2018 and 2021 as a full-time employee, my design-relationship with the company didn't stop there. After ending my employment, I became an independent contractor, designing and building internal tools for the design agency. The projects I have helped build may not be public facing, but are used both by the Beavercreek employees and their clients who use their financial sector software.
