CASA FY07-08 Report Card

Firm: Freelance

Following on the heels of a well-received FY07 Annual Report, CASA of Allegheny County again planned an announcement of their milestones for FY 08. This time, not surprisingly, a smaller budget necessitated a more straightforward approach to the communication of CASA’s successes for the year.

Using a single-fold standard-sized self mailing postcard, I designed a simple and warm piece featuring kids holding their “grade” for CASA’s performance this past year!

/ CASA Background /

CASA of Allegheny County is a truly special client. CASA works hard for one sole  purpose — children. They act as a child’s advocate in the courts in situations of abuse, neglect and family-centered issues, when children otherwise would have no voice.

Simply Branding - On Slideshare

A short slideset I was asked to put together for a guest talk at Duquesne University. It briefly defines branding and offers a few examples of my perspectives on “Brand Families” and “Brand Voice.”

SEI | Lobby Glass Branding

Firm: Software Engineering Institute

To support newly upgraded and enhanced security within the SEI’s main building in the Oakland area of Pittsburgh, a glass enclosure was installed with security badge access points. With a great opportunity for a branded environment, I have designed an application of the SEI signature for the glass and installed using a “frosted” vinyl application.
