Public Information, Designed to be Read
Civic publications carry a heavy load: data, directories, schedules and policy — often for readers who never asked for any of it. How do you make institutional information feel human?
A Year of Listening, Made Clear.
Produced with Warhol & WALL ST. for the Central Ohio Transit Authority, this report documents the 2025 engagement season for the East Main Street Bus Rapid Transit project — 44 events, 11,211 residents reached, and 4,334 direct conversations across Downtown, the Near East Side, Bexley, Whitehall, and Reynoldsburg.
The design system pairs the LinkUS navy-and-green identity with GIS engagement maps, key-figure sidebars, neighborhood-by-neighborhood sentiment summaries, resident pull quotes, and field photography — turning a season of community data into a document partners and public officials can actually navigate.
A City’s Voice, Preserved in Print.
A record of the art and conversations that emerged during Columbus’s 2020 racial justice protests. Created for the Greater Columbus Arts Council, this publication brings murals, essays, and community perspectives into a lasting editorial experience. Expressive cover collage and artwork-led pages preserve the energy of the streets, while reflective writing gives the work context. QR-linked performances extend the story beyond the page, connecting visual art with poetry, film, and movement.
Stronger Neighborhoods Start with Connection.
A conference program designed to help Columbus neighborhood leaders navigate a day of learning, exchange, and recognition. Color-coded session tables, clear schedules, and speaker profiles organize a full agenda into a practical companion. Neighborhood illustrations connect the design to the people and places at the heart of the event, while dedicated award sections celebrate the residents and young leaders helping shape the city’s future.
The People and Possibility Behind the Numbers.
A district overview that brings Columbus City Schools’ people, programs, and achievements into focus. Bold red graphics, student and educator photography, and concise data displays balance institutional information with individual stories. From academics and career pathways to athletics and community partnerships, the publication gives readers a clear picture of the district’s breadth while keeping the students and educators behind its accomplishments at the center.
A Stronger Mindset. A Shared Identity.
A practical brand guide for a summit that places student-athlete mental wellness at the center of the conversation. The identity combines bold typography, a crown-inspired mark, and a green-and-gold palette with direct, encouraging language. Guidelines for co-branding, photography, messaging, and applications carry that identity across social content, merchandise, signage, and event materials, giving partners a shared approach to expressing the TC3 Memorial Foundation’s mission.
A Legacy of Trust, Built into the Brand.
A brand guide that brings AMW Group’s insurance, real estate, and consulting services into one cohesive identity. The publication connects the company’s story and values with clear standards for logos, color, typography, imagery, and voice. Clean layouts and practical application examples make the system usable across everyday communications, giving internal teams and external partners a consistent way to present a business built on trust, relationships, and long-term growth.
Making the First Step Easier to Find.
A community resource guide designed to make a large collection of mental health and support services feel approachable. Color-coded sections, consistent provider listings, and clear contact details help readers navigate resources by need and life stage. Inclusive imagery and a welcoming palette bring warmth to the information, creating a practical reference for Franklin County residents seeking support for themselves, their families, or someone they care about.
Little Pages. Big Belief.
A personalized bedtime book that turns lessons in kindness, courage, and independent thinking into a story worth repeating. Written under the name Shené Reign, the book pairs playful rhyme with warm illustrations and affirmations designed to be spoken together. Spacious text pages alternate with full-page scenes, creating a gentle reading rhythm that celebrates Black joy, a father’s encouragement, and a child’s growing confidence in his own voice.
A Legacy in Music. A Story to Stay In.
A guest publication that gives The Ellington Hotel concept a story to explore. Arranged in five movements, the dossier connects Duke Ellington’s life and creative approach with the hotel’s imagined founding, spaces, rooms, and music program. Archival imagery, interior visualizations, and a navy-and-cream editorial system balance storytelling with practical guest information. The landscape format invites a slower read, turning a guide to the property into an introduction to its entire world.
A Life in Music. A Legacy in Every Room.
A publication conceived like a vinyl record, with two sides to one story. Side A explores Duke Ellington’s creative life; Side B translates that legacy into the imagined spaces and programs of The Ellington Hotel. Oversized headlines, track-number navigation, record-groove graphics, and an ink-and-paper palette with ochre and red accents give the square format its editorial rhythm. Biography and brand storytelling meet in a piece designed to be read, revisited, and kept.
