An ArtiosCAD render of one of my final projects in WestRock role, an advent calender with minimal disruption to the existing production process and package integrity My first freelance packaging design Turning sheets of paper into more fun 3D structures even as a kid. I think I was making a fortune teller here. Vacuum formed trays, exploring displacement of graphics Krispy Kreme Valentines 2022 with detachable cards A DIY prototype for TalkMedia, a journalism start-up which hosted an online event I created the physical component for. This shot shows the layered tv scene, the pull-out drive-in scene on top, and the overall sleeve with reveals connected to the digital space.

Past in Packaging Design
Graphite study of leaves from my backyard Flexo printing plates and production sample of wine bottle label Interactive Augmented Reality map made for PPA SDC 2021 In my senior year highschool art class, I wanted a new challenge, something with quirk for my quirky vision of Spiderman riding a Vespa and slinging spaghetti. So I tried it with cake fondant, which isn't easily paintable or structurally sound. Spidey's limbs sacrifice rigid joints for a more fluid bend and the fondant spaghetti was replaced with a piece of actual dried spaghetti. Placed on a cake and submitted on my teachers actual birthday, easily the most fun project that year Currently my most common creative expression is with my make-up. I love doing large colourful looks, this was for a biblically accurate angel cosplay. My brother and I collaborated on this, his specialty is circuit boards. I made the artwork of the Toronto icon and their victim. When you touch its belly the eyes light up red. Savo focused on getting them to be ultra low-power, enough to last years.

Mastery Across Mediums

That is a young me smiling beside the crane operator loading up the incinerator. This is perhaps the earliest example I could find about my lifelong passion for sustainability (burning garbage is bad, but at least they generate some electricity with it)

Experiences in Sustainability Engineering
Sick nails from SnailNail.ca Customiser page for nails, ensuring fair prices A screenshot of the Elementor for WordPress interface with the home page of the website, building something that was easy to learn how to change was a priority. My old version of this website homepage The new theme switcher feature on this website This is an isolated image of the Ugly Stick drawing I made for the Mummers Play poster. Entirely hand-drawn in illustrator, focused on including an aspect from each characters costume and story without masking the cultural function of the Ugly Stick as a noise making device made out of 'whatever is available'

This is a link to the music video I was inspired by With the prompt 'Catfish', I was inspired by the elements women often exaggerate when they ‘catfish’ online. I took these elements to the extreme using photoshop and a vivid colour palette that delivers an unsettling effect matching the alien proportions Clip example of my B/W film photography

Still Curious?

Posing at the door of my lab at WestRock, I had just made this sign using the plotter to help others know I was in there for safety reasons as I largely worked alone.
