I created several photo mockups for the Etsy stores A Custom Cut and A Custom Shop. I placed our existing designs onto blank photo templates, which allowed us to show multiple design variations with one photo. I created realistic mockups using perspective, blurring, texturing, and other techniques.
I designed, cut, and assembled these motorcycle-themed greeting cards. They are made from watercolor paper and glitter cardstock. There are four color options for the glitter cardstock: cyan, dark blue, light purple, and red.
I designed, cut, and assembled these owl-themed greeting cards. They are made from watercolor paper and glitter cardstock. There are four color options for the glitter cardstock: cyan, dark blue, light purple, and red.
I designed, cut, and assembled these cactus-themed earrings. They are made from layered faux leather pieces. There are two color options for the faux leather: brown/gold and green/gold.
I designed, cut, and assembled these citrus-themed earrings. They are made from faux leather and heat transfer vinyl. There are three color options for the faux leather: orange, green, and pink.
This piece was designed to be comforting and dreamlike. For example, the owl’s wings form a protective, glowing umbrella. The decorative stars and beads were inspired by baby crib mobiles. Likewise, the warm lights and round, repetitive shapes make the shadows less intimidating.
This vector graphic is a tribute to the shiny, sparkly, and beautiful things in the world! I created the design for holographic and glitter vinyl, which I can cut with my Cricut Maker machine.
I enjoy collecting glass cups and containers, which I arranged on a table to create this still life. It features a variety of shapes, colors, and textures for contrast. I also used loose brush strokes and sketchy lines for a more painterly, energetic style.
This Undertale fan art shows a bright hallway in a castle. It depicts a tranquil moment before a dramatic scene in the game.

Undertale Dating Simulator is a fan project based on Toby Fox’s Undertale (he allows non-profit fan games). The player can befriend, date, or break the hearts of various characters from the original game. Content is rated PG-13.
I was an artist on the promotional team, which creates posters and other materials for social media. I made all the artwork below.

Above: I drew this piece for the project's Facebook cover photo. I also created the winged heart logo, a variation of Undertale's Delta Rune symbol (a royal crest).
Above: pages 1 and 2 of a letter from Papyrus to the main character. I drew the artwork, while @1doubleoh wrote the letter's contents.
I helped design a prototype app for Plural Publishing, which focused on auditory therapy for children. Users play minigames to complete listening tasks, such as deciding whether two sounds are the same or not. New designers and developers can use the prototype to help build the final product.
I was responsible for creating and animating all art assets for the minigames (using Adobe Illustrator and Flash). I designed male and female versions of the main character, as well as multiple hair, eye, and skin colors. I also prepared wireframes and art assets for the app's interface.
I created this logo for Walkies San Diego, a dog walking and pet sitting service. The design is modern and slightly playful. It uses bright colors, a plaid scarf, and a large emblem to create distinct, memorable branding in the dog walking business.
The logo appeared on t-shirts, paper advertising, Facebook, and the client’s website.
I created this logo for Mod Synths, an online service that will sell equipment for modular synthesizers. The logo is minimalist and retro, yet stylish. The jack under the “m” hints at the product, but the main focus is the typography itself.
I created several logo designs for Rick Stojak, a professional drummer and instructor in San Diego, CA. He offers drum lessons, hosts clinics, and wrote the “How to Build a Drum Groove” book series.
Rick is passionate about music and loves his work. He wanted a logo that was modern, yet energetic and “rock and roll”. He also needed logo variations for his website, books, apparel, and other products. For example, some designs have subtitles, while others do not use the drum icon at all.
This Undertale fan art depicts Sans and Papyrus, the skeleton brothers. Papyrus (right) is lecturing Sans for being lazy and avoiding his puzzle-building responsibilities.

This OneShot fan art shows the game’s main character, Niko, holding the world’s “sun” (a giant lightbulb). The atmosphere is dark and lonely, yet Niko remains hopeful for the future.

This Night in the Woods fan art features the game's four main characters: Mae, Angus, Bea, and Gregg. I focused on detailed textures, intricate metalwork, and vivid colors, but I also wanted to maintain the game's simple, endearing character design.
