Previously

Most recently, I designed a mail kit for requesting and 3D printing tactile maps when floor plans aren't available.

Mockup: mail kit materials on top of a wooden desk, including whiteboard markers, stickers, and a grid for the rough scale of a room.

For TEDxSFU, I designed and developed an expressive teaser page, unmasking the speakers and story behind the conference.
