From Startup to Established Brand
Long-term advertising campaign for Elbow Room through TheHomeMag Austin & San Antonio
From startup launch to established brand, I developed and evolved Elbow Room's advertising over several years, adapting creative to support changing products, messaging, and business goals while maintaining a strong brand presence. Strategic design updates, including a QR code linking to their online configurator, increased average scans from 14 to 97 per issue, demonstrating how thoughtful creative can directly improve customer engagement.
Launching a New Market with a Strong First Impression
Client: TheHomeMag Philadelphia
Designed a branded presentation folder for the launch of TheHomeMag Philadelphia that gave the sales team a polished, organized way to present marketing materials to prospective advertisers. A clean white folder with subtle spot-gloss branding delivered a premium look while remaining cost-effective for a new publication.
Designing for a Record-Breaking Capital Campaign
Client: The Academy of Notre Dame
Designed a cohesive suite of campaign materials—including invitations, brochures, and event programs—for Our Time to Inspire, the Academy's multimillion-dollar capital campaign. The campaign exceeded its fundraising goal, helping secure funding for major campus enhancements.
Unifying Three Global Brands into One
Client: The Academy of Notre Dame
Developed an international advertising campaign to introduce KantarHealth following the merger of three global life sciences organizations. Designed print ads and branded internal graphics for more than 40 global offices, creating a consistent visual identity that unified employees worldwide and strengthened awareness of the new brand.
Behind the Work
How I Keep 52 Issues on Track
Producing four magazines with 13 issues each year means managing dozens of projects and deadlines simultaneously. I built a streamlined workflow in Monday.com to track every issue, coordinate proof approvals, and keep production moving efficiently from concept to press.
Creating Cover-Worthy Photography
Great covers start with great photography. To help clients understand what makes an effective cover image, I created a visual guide comparing original photos with the finished magazine covers. It became a valuable resource for setting expectations and improving the quality of submitted photography.
Designing Tools That Help Sales Sell
Each year I designed and updated the sales materials that supported the advertising team, including rate cards, market maps, publication schedules, and presentation pieces. Providing clear, polished collateral helped the sales team communicate value consistently and confidently to both existing and prospective advertisers.
