Client: Global Aerospace & Defense Firm
Role: Environmental Systems Lead

Challenge
Preserve design intent while identifying cost savings across a campus-wide environmental graphics and wayfinding system.

Strategy
Reconsidered materials, production, and sequencing as an integrated whole. Prototyped quickly, failed fast, and refined through iterative mock-ups.

Impact
Achieved ~$250K in savings (~25% of production budget) without compromising design integrity. Insights informed cost-conscious strategies on future large-scale projects.

Client: Global Media Company
Role: Strategy & Systems Contributor

Challenge
A proposed renovation wouldn't move forward without demonstrating need—visually and quantitatively. Design had to be justified with clear, data-backed reasoning.

Strategy
Supported early-stage spatial analysis to understand explosive headcount growth, operational bottlenecks, and behavioral patterns—especially around food service and circulation. Translated findings into a clear narrative that helped leadership connect lived experience to quantifiable strain. Developed supporting decks and documentation to anticipate detailed questions and build confidence. Later, contributed to environmental graphics and wayfinding, aligning brand standards with spatial and code constraints.

Impact
Helped create the clarity and confidence needed to advance a major renovation. Provided structure and storytelling that gave decision-makers the tools to move forward.

Client: Global Investment Firm
Role: Systems Designer for Public Engagement

Challenge
Enable scalable, meaningful access to a multi-site public art collection—across varied architectural finishes and long-term facilities constraints.

Strategy
Developed a flexible tagging system using clear acrylic plates screen-printed with QR codes (or placeholders), mounted via tailored hardware based on wall type. Designed a templated workflow that automated layout from Excel data for streamlined production with minimal visual disruption.

Impact
Delivered a maintainable, low-visibility infrastructure for cultural engagement, adaptable to future content and considerate of both architectural context and operational needs.

Client: Global Tech Company
Role: Strategic Designer & Program Lead

Challenge
Support high-stakes real estate planning with clear, data-informed analysis to aid in lease negotiations and future programming.

Strategy
Led program development within a cross-disciplinary advisory team. Used interviews, focus groups, and scenario modeling to surface patterns and explore growth possibilities. Translated findings into visual frameworks and information design that clarified trade-offs and revealed new options.

Impact
Equipped decision-makers with actionable insight at a critical inflection point—shaping conversations around headcount, spatial needs, and long-term flexibility without predetermining outcomes.

Client: Global Financial Firm
Role: Workplace Systems Designer

Challenge
Establish a modular planning approach that balances long-term adaptability with clarity for internal teams and external partners.

Strategy
Co-developed a spatial equivalency framework to simplify planning conversations and create consistency across real estate projects. Helped produce a detailed workplace standards guide that articulated this logic with visual clarity and narrative precision, supporting broader decision-making and rollout efforts.

Impact
Enabled scalable workplace planning through a clear, design-led system. The standards helped align strategy, design intent, and execution across regions.
