Work that's sincere, creative, and connected
Graphic Design + Illustration
The Home Ignition Zone is an important concept illustrating the priority areas for mitigating the risk of wildland fire damage. I was tasked with designing and illustrating this concept in a clear way, while maintaining brand integrity.
Content Creation + Strategy
The Souris Moose Creek Region needed a series of ads for print and web. I conceptualized the "Imagine" series, employing original illustration and tag lines that would enable the viewer to imagine what kind of experiences they could enjoy in the region.

Video + Animation
Oxbow Rum Runners
During prohibition in the 20's and 30's, Oxbow, Saskatchewan was known for the distribution and production of liquor. I interviewed Otto Neuman, a local historian and long-time resident, who tells us a little about the stories he knows from those precarious days.
National Wildland Fire Preparedness Levels
The Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre needed a new and eye-catching way to communicate the National Preparedness Levels throughout the fire season over social media. I created a series of animations designed for Twitter in both official languages that show the national preparedness level, and a brief description.
Logos + Brands
The form in this logo for the Canadian Rural Revitalization Foundation is composed of undulating stripes of blue and green, with an intersection occurring in the middle. These crossroads serve as a visual anchor, but also represent a question many rural individuals, families, and businesses are faced with: Why do we choose to live rurally? This juncture serves as a visual reminder of those strong convictions for rural life – a life that often includes challenges and resilience compared to an urban counterpart.
The raw, hand-drawn lines of the blue background offer an organic feel, influenced by the natural landscape that is unequivocally associated with rural life. The rounded-square form includes one pointed corner, representing the guidance and leadership that the Canadian Rural Revitalization Foundation provides through its research and support.
