Case Studies
Did something catch your eye over in Featured Works? Here's where the story continues! These case studies take a closer look at the goals, collaboration, creative decisions, and challenges behind a curated selection of projects spanning a variety of clients, disciplines, and deliverables. Along the way, you'll see how thoughtful communication systems can transform even the most delightfully specific ideas—like exactly how much vertical and horizontal clearance an aerial cable car needs next to a building or particularly tall tree—into clear, engaging, and accessible visual communication.
Client: Liberty Lake, Washington
City of Liberty Lake Parks and Recreation Master Plan
Building on the City of Liberty Lake's established Comprehensive Plan branding, I developed a cohesive visual identity that carried the Parks & Recreation Master Plan from early public outreach through the final publication. From report templates and infographics to engagement boards, flyers, and social media graphics, every piece was designed to make complex planning information approachable, engaging, and easy to navigate while creating a consistent experience across the entire planning process.

Port Townsend 2045 Planning Initiatives
The City of Port Townsend's 2045 planning efforts called for multiple initiatives to feel distinct while remaining part of one cohesive campaign. Building from the City's established brand, I developed unique visual identities, publication templates, custom illustrations, engagement materials, and a public-facing website that brought the Comprehensive Plan Update and Parks, Recreation & Open Space (PROS) Plan together across both print and digital platforms.
Client: Greater Elizabeth Area, Colorado
Greater Elizabeth Area Parks, Recreation, Open Space, and Trails (PROST) Master Plan
Inspired by the surrounding Colorado landscape, I created the visual identity for the Greater Elizabeth Area Parks, Recreation, Open Space & Trails (PROST) Master Plan, beginning with a custom logo and expanding into a complete communication toolkit. From report layouts and infographics to public engagement materials, the resulting visual system established a distinctive identity for the project while strengthening community outreach every step of the way.
Client: Lake Forest Park, Washington
City of Lake Forest Park 2044 Comprehensive Plan Update
As the City of Lake Forest Park's 2044 Comprehensive Plan evolved amid changes in leadership, maintaining visual consistency became just as important as creating it. By extending the City's established brand across report design and public engagement materials, I developed a flexible communication toolkit that kept every deliverable polished, accessible, and visually cohesive from early outreach through final adoption. With a larger project scope, I expanded the visual system through custom iconography, section opener designs, and a two-volume layout that made the final plan easier to navigate.
