Advancing dermatology for every skin story is the slogan and mindset of all efforts of Galderma. With multiple products in consumer, prescription and esthetic markets, the needs for labeling and packaging designs are never ending.

If I’m not busy with designing and modifying product packaging and labeling components, you can find me creating product renderings for marketing efforts and online retailers.

With over 300 stores across the US, Rexel USA, Gexpro and Platt have a large need for marketing support. I help provide that support from the corporate office located in Addison, TX. Whether it is flyers, digital banners or in-store promotional items, I am able to create designs that leverage vendor logos for monthly events in a timely manner.

Although my title at Joe East Enterprises is Graphic Designer, the work I do varies from day to day. I might be directing an ad campaign one day and lettering a van the next. As long as I have good music playing, I'm happy doing whatever needs to be done.

This project was for a fictitious soap company. I had a lot of fun tweaking the embellishments of the logo, as well as, taking the product shots of the bar of soap. Since I love product design and logos, this project was very enjoyable for me.

Wellers Artisan Coffee Roasters was a local coffee company concept I played around with that would sell fresh coffee and baked goods. I had a lot of fun designing this project. The logo was incorporated into all of the “to go” packaging as well.

My most recent involvement with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation comes by way of the Dallas Wine Opener. This is the largest fund raising event for the foundation, and I was very honored to provide the design work.

I have been fortunate to be involved with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.  My introduction to the foundation was as an inductee to the 2015 Finest Under 40 class. These designs were for the promotions, as well as, the event room.

I continued my involvement with the foundation by providing designs for the 2016 induction ceremonies, as well as, designs for a digital billboard.

I was honored to continue my work with the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation by providing designs for the CF Concert Series. Design duties involved posters, social posts, event banners and t shirts.

Logos are one of my favorite things to design. I love the challenge of incorporating the intended vision within a limited amount of space and colors. Being a fan of puzzles and creativity, logos are the perfect fit for me!

I created a logo for a friend’s 40th birthday trip to Puerto Vallarta. The logo was used on multiple items that went into a “goodie bag” for each guest.

Designing concert posters is the perfect marriage of my love for music and design! Being a collector of posters, the chance to design them for local artists is a special treat.

I was fortunate to get the chance to design several posters for Austin-based artist Charley Crockett early in his rising career.

My involvement with Where it's at started when I won their logo design contest.

Where it's at is a local music enthusiast community group that started via Facebook. With over 2,000 members, the group is very active in supporting local music and venues. They have gone on to open chapters in Houston, Denver and Portland.

I have submitted designs twice for local radio station 91.7 KXT's design contest. The winning design is printed on shirts, posters and mugs that are given to people who pledge money to the station. I was happy both entries made it to the final five. I am hopeful third time will be the charm for winning!

These are a few of the projects I completed while in school for design.

The Jeep project was a national campaign for the 75th anniversary. The project incorporated magazine ads, billboards and takeover banner ads.

Pizza Works was a casual dinning pizza restaurant. Customers chose from various pizza dough and ingredients as they watched a chef build their pizza.

Forest Outdoor was a web design project for an active wear clothing line.

6 Eggs was a packaging design project for a liquid free-range egg product. The bottle had a built in measuring system for easy use.
