Last week, I updated my #illustration and #typography course materials and came across Designing Type by Karen Cheng, a great find for both new and experienced designers. Highly recommend! This is an illustration I created for the DesCan Journal descan.ca

Over the past few months, I’ve been restructuring my career, shifting from FT self-employment to a new role as an Assistant Professor (Teaching). Now that things are gradually settling into place, I look forward to sharing more about this transition and what it means for my practice and teaching.

Happy first day of spring! 🌼 Today, I’m revisiting my City Pollinators illustration from last year, which was featured in the International Poster Biennial in Mexico A.C. It’s a reminder of the beauty of nature and the importance of supporting pollinators. buff.ly/4gk8c99

Going through my archives, I rediscovered this identity and visual elements I created for @ucalgary! Loved working on this project.

Just came across this very old #illustration—almost 10 years ago! This piece was created for Kiplinger’s Financial Magazine. My style has definitely evolved quite a bit since then. #editorial

Here’s a still look at my animated poster, which I was honoured to have featured last year at the International Poster Biennial in Mexico A.C. This work highlights the importance of pollinators and the ways we can support their environment.
