Madison Opera in The Park Logo
In Integrated design we had to create a logo for a Madison event and combine it with a Madison sponsor. Since I have worked for the Madison Opera as a stagehand over the years, I felt it would be great to design a logo for the event that happens every summer. After the logo was done, I submitted it to the Opera, what did I have to lose. They loved it so much that they made the logo into a sellable product! Now you can buy a glow-in-the-dark frisbee at the event. I worked with them to get the logo design down to work on the frisbee, it was a great experience.

NHL TableTop Die-Cut Promotional Item
This is a foldable tabletop game to promote the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs on the four networks that the NHL playoffs would appear on. It would be printed and die-cut on a 11x17 sheet of heavy paper, and then assembled by the fan. It could be given out at bars, games, and other places that promote the NHL and the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Scot Dance USA Logo Proposal
The mission: To design a logo incorporating the following requests: to promote a Scottish dance competition, feature Madison somehow in the logo, and to have the style of Frank Lloyd Wright in the design. Three things that really have nothing to do with each other, but you have to make it work for the client. This is what I came up for them. Although it was not chosen, I still feel this was a piece to show you can make the impossible happen.
