City of New York’s strategic plan outlining initiatives and goals to improve life for New Yorkers for 2050, addressing how to adapt the City to the changing climate, the growing population, and aging infrastructure. I was the lead designer for the project, overseeing the 9 printed reports and the responsive website.
Redesign of criminal justice organization CSG Justice Center’s website, an extensive resource for policymakers in all three branches of government to public safety and strengthen communities. As well supporting projects such as Clean Slate – a resource for people to navigate how to clear their juvenile and adult criminal record, and 50 State Report on Public safety – a website data and example archive to help policymakers craft custom strategies that work for their state.
An extensive rebrand unifying the visual language across various channels of NYC & Company, the official marketing and tourism agency for New York City. The redesign included amongst many other elements: a new comprehensive brand identity; two new custom typefaces inspired by Massimo Vignelli’s MTA branding with several alternate character variations for maximum type flexibly (the typeface allowed for over 4000 ways to typeset New York City), 250 custom icons, and a complete overhaul of the 9,000+ page official website guiding locals and tourists to New York City.
Recipient of the 2016 HOW in-house awards for the travel category. Also awarded the 2017 Webby Award in the travel category and an honorary mention for the mobile design category for the rebrand.

City wide campaign made by the NYC&co in-house team inspired by vintage travel posters urging New York City locals to venture outside their own borough. The program was so popular that there was a food-focused extension of the program made; a take on retro suitcase stickers used on bus shelters and printed ads through out New York City.
