Featured: Reptilia
My visual interpretation of The Strokes song Reptilia. My concept was to abstractly represent the mood and sounds of the instruments in the song with shapes. Some shapes are actually the guitar riffs tabbed out.
Featured: Open House 2010 cover
Cover design for Mustang Daily's 2010 Open House. The Open House theme was "To Cal Poly and Beyond."
Featured: Curbside Grill campaign
An ad campaign for Curbside Grill, Cal Poly Campus Dining's food truck. The concept for the advertising was pretty straightforward: show real students eating in kind of setting they would eat it in, what the food looks like, and give the design a look and feel that matches the informal nature of fast food.
Art direction by Danielle Nishimi Photography by Jim Weiss

This ad campaign won a national award for third place Best Display Ad/Campaign for a college newspaper by CNBAM. It also received an "Honorable Mention" for a Pacemaker Award in the fall of 2009.
