I worked on the global demand team creating engaging print, video, graphic and web experiences. We worked closely with regional teams to provide collateral (postcards, signs, brochures ect) that responded to market trends to generate revenue. I collaborated with tech leaders to produce insider tech videos, demos and motion graphics. Ensured brand compliance across the internationally produced collateral. Maintained accurate accounts of all produced collateral for archival purposes.

I championed almost all visual design and art for an indie developed space simulation title. I overhauled our brand including new logos, typography, colors and visual language. I designed game UIs, menus, modals, spaceships and environments for the title. I collaborated with team members on building and assembly of the simulator for live events.
