COMPLETED
2022–2024 with BitterSweet Creative
Since 2019, BitterSweet has worked with Stand Together Foundation (STF) and partners on experience and environmental design for events and programming. Event design support has taken the team coast to coast – creating large format graphics, materials, and experimental activations in San Diego, Denver, Houston, Cleveland, Nashville, Atlanta, Orlando, Washington, DC, and more.
While each event and venue is unique, BitterSweet maintains a consistent brand vision across the whole body of work, building brand awareness and trust that transcends audiences.
My role at BitterSweet includes deep and frequent collaboration with STF as BitterSweet’s in-house designer and STF’s primary design contact. Every week, I create stickers, email graphics, environmental signage, printed programs, guidelines for brand extensions and expressions, and more for virtual, in-person, nation-wide, and local events. Below is just a sampling of the wide breadth of work for which I am personally responsible.
At their February 2023 catalyst summit in Wichita, Stand Together Foundation wanted a visual identity that EXPRESSED the rock music theme of their venue, WAVEict.
I designed posters for each of the attending organizations in the style of punk wheatpaste flyers, in addition to music festival-inspired event posters, “badges” for staff and attendees, and printed collateral like programs and invitations.
