Portfolio
My design work straddles a diversity of fields.

I aim to create clean, visually compelling designs that clearly communicate their message and functions. Working at a newspaper taught me to be stellar on deadline, make quick decisions and work independently. But truly I thrive in collaborative environments.

Indy.com | North American Music Festival Guide
2008 Music Festival Guide
This enterprise piece was built for young music-savvy travelers at Indy.com for The Indianapolis Star. The map launched before the summer music festival season. I conducted the data research for ticket costs, gas estimates, distances and festival information and worked with the editorial and marketing departments for the launch.

This GoogleMap API uses javascript and css to guide Indy.com readers to the best music festivals around North America. http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/99999999/LIVING/80326059
 

2008 Election Forecast
Election Astrology Forecast
This enterprise story idea paired with our print and online coverage of the upcoming election. I reported for the story and interviewed a national numerologist based in Indianapolis and an Astrologer from Bloomington, Indiana, with 26 years experience. This interactive Alternative Story Form explores the personalities of the presidential candidates, their astrological compatibility with their VP candidates and a profile of Election Day.
