Client & Membership Engagement Video Campaigns

Title: The Making of the Torus Arch
Member: Jamestown Lp - Ponce City Market
My Role: Director, Editor, Camera Operator


Project Overview:
This video documents an interactive public art installation designed by architect Tristan Al-Haadad to raise awareness of mass timber construction and the importance of forestry in the state of Georgia. The installation, constructed entirely from mass timber, stood approximately nine feet tall and featured a suspended swing at its center. The swing was designed in the shape of a torus, inviting visitors to physically engage with the structure. Installed at Ponce City Market, the piece leveraged a high-traffic public space to spark curiosity, encourage interaction, and educate the public on sustainable building materials and responsible forestry practices.

Branding & ReBranding

Project: Educating Georgia Landowners on Forestry
Audience: Landowners in Georgia
My Role: Graphic Design, Web Design

I led the full brand development of Georgia Forestry 101 from concept to launch, establishing a clear identity for an educational program built to engage both industry professionals and the general public. This work included creating the brand from the ground up- designing the logo branding, defining the color palette, and setting brand standards that ensure consistency across all digital touchpoints.

I also designed the website that gives a user-friendly experience that balances education with visual storytelling. Following launch, I continue to manage the site on a daily basis, overseeing content updates, performance, and ongoing maintenance to ensure the platform remains current and aligned with the program's mission.

Project: Carbon Markets
Audience: Landowners & Sustainable Businesses
My Role: Graphic Design, Web Design

I led the branding and visual design of Carbon 101, an educational initiative focused on translating complex scientific concepts into clear, accessible content for a general audience. I developed the brand from the ground up, including logo design, color palette, and a visual system that could scale across digital platforms. A major focus of this project was designing a highly visual website experience, creating custom charts, icons, and graphic elements that simplified dense data-driven information into easy-to-understand visuals.

To further support learning and engagement, I also produced explanatory video content that reinforced key concepts through motion, narrative, and visual storytelling.

Published Photography

I have photographed five cover images for the statewide forestry magazine, producing editorial-quality visuals that go beyond traditional event coverage. These shoots were approached with a journalistic mindset, focusing on narrative, environment, and people.

My experience spans both live event photography and magazine blog-style storytelling, allowing me to capture images that function as standalone editorial features.
