WIP: Personal Website - Color Transition — Dark and light color modes are becoming more and more popular. I wanted to play with the idea of having a subtle easter egg feature, allowing users to change their color mode. I didn't want to use a traditional toggle switch or a dropdown feature from the top of the site as you scroll. I decided to try a simple, vertical text that would follow the user's scrolling on the site.
WIP: Personal Website Project Page — Sometimes when you're working through the concept phase, it's not until the idea converts to pixels that you realize it might not work. For this design, I wanted to create a layout that allowed me to show more work in less space using a gallery. I wonder if this will be the most effective for the user, so it's time to expand that idea through a few more iterations.
Personal Portfolio Website Preview — Here is a sneak peek at the new website I'm building for my portfolio work.
Continuous Carbon Fiber 3D Printed Skateboard w/ CF3D® — Working around with some After Effects interactions to show off our latest demonstration part we printed with our awesome technology, Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (CF3D®). This is the World's first continuous carbon fiber 3D printed skateboard. Kind of a big deal. Check out more at http://cf3d.co
Robot Operating System - Print Log Dashboard — Here is a look at the dashboard for the Robot Operating System. In this interface, a robot operator can track all prints, create a new print and see their print log to take further action. This is all done from a touch screen interface that allows the operator to make quick actions with ease. See the full story on Behance: https://www.behance.net/gallery/87671373/Robot-Operating-System-Interfa...
Robot Operating System - Control Interface — Say hello to ROS. The Robot Operating System. This touch screen interface was designed to allow industrial robot operators to monitor all environmental controls, robot movements, settings and monitor progress from a tablet device. See the full story on Behance: https://www.behance.net/gallery/87671373/Robot-Operating-System-Interface-Design
Histork History App - Final Identity — Check out the Historik app final identity for my passion project. Inspired from the Betsy Ross flag from 1776 with a modern twist.
Providence Homestead - Identity — Here's a look at the identity for Providence Homestead. The objective of this identity is to create a brand for the client's homestead product line. Jersey dairy cows are the core of the business with an extension into other farm goods. So we made the Jersey cow the hero of the identity. The tagline is a work in progress. Hope you enjoy.
Historik App - Filtering — Check out the filtering feature of the Historik app from my passion project. Users can select EXACTLY what they want to discover. As their interests change, what they discover can as well. This will help clear up the clutter and only serve up what the user wants. Also, check out the latest newsletter from the Historik road trip from ID to AZ. I cover the top 3 ghost towns discovered. Check it ...
Continuous Composites - Rack Cards — Here's an overview of the marketing rack cards designed to help share Continuous Composites with users offline.

Continuous Composites Website - 404 Page — With the 404 page we wanted to show a little of our personality and have some fun, while still staying professional.
Continuous Composites Website - About Hero — Here's a look at the about page hero for the Continuous Composites website.

Historik: Condensed Markers Interaction — Here's a look at how I have envisioned condensing historical markers when there is a large saturation of historical points in one area. As a user zooms out on the map this will become even more important.
Change the Way You Create - Shirt Illustration — Check out this fun shirt I had the opportunity to illustrate using the iPad app ConceptApp. I have NEVER been an illustrator but this was a pretty fun project. The design idea is to play with an old groundbreaking innovation (the Edison Light Bulb) and new groundbreaking technology (Continuous Composites). This is a concept design for a new internal team shirt. I wanted to create something tha...
Historik - Hidden History Feature — If you've traveled to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, you've driven or walked by 3rd and Sherman in downtown. A feature of Historik is something called Hidden History where you can stand in history. Here's a picture of the 1359 Northern Pacific Locomotive headed North on 3rd toward the old Train Depot. You can consider it to be low-tech AR.
Historik - Location Selection and View — Here's an inside look into the Historik mobile app experience. A user can tap a historical point to get a quick view. If the user is interested in learning more they can click "view" or swipe up to see more images, get a description, have the information played to them audibly and get directions to that location if they want to see it for themselves. #behistorik #historikapp #historyrediscovere...
Historik Color Exploration — So I'm looking for some feedback. These two color options target a very different audience. Which do you feel resonates if we're trying to reach a younger crowd but still not alienate an older audience. YELLOW/GRAY or RED/BLUE/GRAY
