For about a year, since Fall of 2018, I have been an e-commerce graphic designer for Aduro Products. I was tasked to create some video content for a few products. I started with a branded logo animation.
This animation would be used in this promotional video I created for these two products:
This product can be found here: Aduro Foldable Fast Wireless Charger
This product can be found here: Aduro Solid-Grip Phone Holder for Desk
As a graphic design intern, I’m often tasked with various graphic and video content for the team’s social media page. Below are few examples.

After completing my undergraduate studies, I volunteered for a non-profit called DoughMain Financial Literacy Foundation. I created these GIFs for a social media Giving Tuesday campaign.

Some of the most exciting moments of my career so far has taken place while working as a graphic artist for the local news network: News 12 New Jersey. I was assigned to create on-air graphics & animated maps for live newscasts during various on-call shifts, either 4:00am – 1:00pm, or 2:00pm – 11:00pm. Working for a live television news channel meant always being prepared to do things last-minute. A director or producer could request something at any time.
Please check out a small sample of my work, made for and broadcast on live TV, below.
I was requested by a producer to create a package of graphics that showed the official FBI document (scanned) in the background. I took inspiration from how John Oliver’s graphic team shows quotes over his shoulder during his comedy show, “Last Week Tonight” on HBO.
Every year, our church has a large Vacation Bible School event that has over 200 kids in attendance. This year, we are making our own theme and material, so I designed this logo and banner below.
Easter egg: the large cross in the logo is an homage to the steeple at our church (pictured below).
I had the wonderful opportunity last fall not only to take my friends’ engagement photos, but also to put together their save-the-date magnets. Their wedding is coming up this summer!

During this past winter I’ve had the opportunity to volunteer Doughmain Financial Literacy Foundation, a non profit that creates curriculums and programs to give high schoolers financial education. Their curriculum, called the “FitKit”, consisted of 16+ spiral-bound notebooks and I was tasked with the job of designing a package for it. Below is my design: a roll end box with locking cover as well as a magazine holder inside.
