I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to step in and help the staff of MLS meet the deadline of their OOH marketing launch for the MLS Cup with different city scenarios for the Nov 5th 2022 matches. Similar to a station domination in many cities, all final production files were done in Adobe illustrator. it was fun to be involved in the marketing of a major sports event. I would love to add MLB, NBA, the NFL, NASCAR and NHRA next to this list!

Thank you to Code and Theory for giving me the opportunity to break into the digital side and work on projects for Amazon Ads, ConEd and learn Figma during my time there. Working as a print production-designer at Code and Theory, I utilized my print background to design, build and solve print related challenges that arise at a digital agency. Working primarily in Figma and Adobe CC to produce print, OOH, collateral, digital banners, html email and social media template design work for clients such as Amazon Ads and ConEd. My latest work was on display in late April at NYC’s Union Square subway entrances for ConEd. Working with the ADs, I helped solve the challenges involved with translating their newspaper campaign for ConEd in Figma into final OOH print files into a subway station takeover campaign. Show less
