PATTISON OUTDOOR
CONTRACT WORK
2022-
︎ Large Format Design
︎ Marketing Materials
︎ Print and Digital Media
Pattison Outdoor, branch of the Jim Pattison Group, is one of Canada’s leading producers and distributors of OOH (Out-of-Home) advertising. Whether it’s a local or national campaign, the power of out-of-home advertising is harnessed while providing specifically catered choices and insights to ensure every campaign is a success story.
My role as a member of Pattison’s creative department has allowed me the opportunity to works with hundreds of companies on display from coast to coast, while teaming up with a tight-knit group of like-minded creatives right here in Winnipeg.
Working with such a wide variety of clients–from real estate to hospitality and everywhere in between–has allowed me to be playful in my experimentation, something I missed. Challenging myself to think outside the box and find ways to effectively match each client’s needs has truly allowed me to further grasp the importance of consumer-appeal and find ways to channel that into my creative processes.

Precision Chemical Technologies Inc. is a 100% Canadian-owned and operated business that manufactures cleaning and disinfecting products for the janitorial, commericial cleaning, automotive and agriculture industries. My role as Precision Chemical’s Graphic Designer and Social Media Content Creator has not only given me the opportunity to create new print and digital assets for the company, but also take on the role of social media content creator and manager.
The marketing materials follow a pre-existing brand guide to ensure regularity with all other documents created with the purpose of informing potential clients about Precision Chemical and the products offered. However, these assets also consist of custom layouts and graphics to display innovative design solutions while effectively demonstrating the corporate design standard.
As the company’s content creator, I have developed and designed a cross-channel social media strategy to audiences across Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to increase our online presence to both local and international clientele. These graphics aim to engage, inform, and captivate our target demographics on these channels through their use of intriguing copy, bright colour palette, and customized illustrations relevant to Precision, without being a direct copy of the corporate standard.

SOA BFA EXHIBITION
CONTRACT WORK
2021
︎ Web Design
︎ Print and Digital Media
︎ Advertising Materials
A tradition at the University of Manitoba’s School of Art, is the annual Honours BFA Graduation Exhibition. This show acts as a platform in which graduating students of the honours program are able to showcase their project(s) that they have worked to develop and execute throughout the two terms. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the faculty chose to develop an online platform that would still allow students to display their artwork.
This website was a collaborative effort between four students, enrolled in fine arts, computer science and music, respectively. As one of the two designers, we worked to create unique branding elements as well as standards of use for these elements including typography, colour, images and graphics. Our goal was to determine a way to best represent this particular group of students, but also the unique limitations and overall unpredictable nature that we were faced within during our final year of post-secondary.
To assist in the promotion of the BFA Exhibition website, I was tasked to create images and graphics to be used on social media and email lists. At the time in which these images were presented, the site had not yet launched, so I wanted to provide subtle hints regarding the visual language of the site mainly the iconographic elements and grid-like features.
On the website, these elements are actually SVG images and morph into new shapes upon hovering with a cursor, I chose to take that idea of unpredictability and irregular motion and apply throughout the image to truly contrast the rigid nature of the grid when untouched by the user.

THE HYPERLINK AS A NARRATIVE
SCHOOL WORK–HONOURS THESIS
2020-2021
︎ Print and Digital Media
︎ Web Design
︎ User Experience
As a part of the curriculum of my fourth year at the University of Manitoba’s School of Art, and enrolment in the honours design program, we were assigned the word act; and had to create a work representative of our interpretation of this theme. For this project, my work has grown to become an exploration of the performative qualities embedded within digital platforms and how they influence individual navigational experiences. I have also chosen to represent the ways in which physical, printed materials are able to act as an extension of the digital platform.
The poster forms work to be a representation of the visual language that frequently appears throughout the platforms. Through the use of scale and bold visuals, they serve as a reflection of a digital space within the world, but are able to grant you an understanding of the way in which the digital space I have created. The instruction manuals works to bridge the poster forms to the webpage. The manual is a more-direct reference to the imagery and visual language of the website and is paired with step-by-step instructions to assist in grasping the ways in which the user should handle the pages they encounter. Through the use of formal language, the manual implies that there is an approach that is proven to be most convenient or successful, but the instructions still retain enough ambiguity to allow for a variety of experiences to be had by different users.

Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) Canada is a member based association dedicated to the practice and promotion of public wellness and safety through the advocation of practices regarding infection prevention and control in everyday life.
In 2021, I had the opportunity to design the IPAC Annual Report that would assist in the direction of their annual conference the following year; for the third year in a row. As materials were selected from members of the association, I began to research potential layouts to pursue that followed the requests of IPAC’s administrative team. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s conference would unfortunately have to take place on a virtual platform rather than in-person. I chose to represent the “new normal” and the health and safety measures through imagery. As this year was also the association’s 45th anniversary, I wanted to reflect ideas of nostalgia of both the near and distant past conferences by requesting images taken at these meetings to be a reflection of how the IPAC conference would be atttended normally.
