Rumpke Trash Flyer
Below is an advertisement I created in InDesign to inform City of Xenia residents about the new trash service the City hired.
Below is a visual aid I created in InDeisgn to supplement the advertisement. It indicates proper trash cart placement.
11,000 copies of the advertisement were printed and distributed to residents. This is how the advertisement appeared in its final form that was delivered to mailboxes.
Xenia Communicator Newsletter
I wrote the Summer and Fall editions of the City of Xenia’s quarterly newsletter. I built it entirely from scratch using Adobe Indesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. I was in charge of all aspects of the design and content curation. The newsletter includes video integration and was distributed using http://www.issuu.com.

Shoe Project
Poster:
I built this poster using Adobe Photoshop and InDesign. It is related to the Ad I built in that it draws on the same theme and uses the same headline and the background from one of the Ad panels. It is intended to be placed inside a retail outlet to promote the Adidas Duramo 6 running shoe.
Ad:
This is a three panel advertisement I built from scratch using Adobe Photoshop and InDesign. I used a mix of stock photos and self-taken photos. The ad concept, headline, and copy are all my original idea too. My idea for the concept was that by wearing Adidas running shoes, a person can go to a lot of interesting places and do a lot of interesting things, such as… Running in your neighborhood with your dog, competing in a race, and running on a beach on a tropical vacation.
Illustration:
Using Adobe Illustrator, I replicated a running shoe from scratch.
I also drew the logo from scratch.
Additionally, I created a layout for a shopping bag, and placed the items (shoe and logo) together to create a prototype of an Adidas shopping bag.
