Portfolio: NAU Cadet Powers Toward 20-Year Goal

I’m going to…

Video: Too Drift, So Fast

Just finished another video! Around Christmas last year, I was able to get some Verrado electric drift trikes from Local Motors in Chandler Arizona. They are such a cool business, doing all kinds of awesome builds. But, I’ve been working on the video on and off ever since – slow as a turtle I know,…

Portfolio: Red Dress Run

A handout-style flyer for the Red Dress Run in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to benefit Soldiers Undertaking Disabled Scuba (SUDS). Much like the benefit, the flyer is very red and printed on cardstock with full bleed – no pun intended. Benefit work is my favorite type of work because, as you can imagine, it’s all for a…
