Green Living Enterprises collaborated with B Corporation to event manage their 2024 corporate conference for their members in Vancouver. After more than a year of planning and execution, I was involved with seeing the visual brand through all of its digital and print touchpoints from start to finish to post-event.

The Bat Cave Exhibit at the R.O.M.

My role was to collaborate with the curators and managers to develop the graphics and text panels for the learning spaces. Once concepts were approved, the graphics and signage elements were finalized and tendered. I liaised with the printers and fabricators to ensure the final deliverables were completed for the opening. Completed at Forrec Ltd.

You should hire me because...

“I’ll be one of the most organized designers you’ll ever meet. I geek out on systems, Google Docs and project management software. By default, I order everything by colour–rainbow first, then greyscale. I’ll also help you make decisions quickly.”

I'm an RGD Member because...

“being part of this community makes me feel like I found my people. I love learning from people in different fields, but sometimes I’m the only or one of the few graphic designers in my spaces. But I know I’m not alone and other members are always willing to listen and help where they can.”

The best part about the RGD is...

“the opportunities to participate and give back. I serve on the Certification Committee which has exposed me to incredible work and inspires me to improve my design practice. I also served on the Board which was an eye-opening experience showing how thoughtful the Association is with its members and the efforts involved with their programming.”
