Graphic Design Projects for Lockton Companies, LLC
EP. 06
As a designer at Lockton I had the opportunity to work closely with sales teams to create unique presentations for hundreds of clients. I worked within the Lockton Brand and with the requests of the sales teams and the clients to ensure all content was presented in a logical yet dynamic way that would stand out against competitors. I often had to work on short timelines with many requests at once.
Note: As Lockton is an insurance brokerage, many pieces of text and additional projects had to be redacted to comply with HIPAA and company policy.
A look into the projects that I worked on while at Lockton:
Bear’s Bar
EP. 05
In Fall of 2021 I entered the University Hall of Innovation's High Point Furniture Market college design competition. I designed a scale model bar cart called 'Bear's Bar' with the idea of being used in a college apartment for a fair price. I won the popular vote along with 3 other Auburn students and was able to refine my design and present a full cart at the April 2022 Market.

D Sharp
EP. 04
In this project I created a completely injection moldable pencil sharpener. This product uses pin bosses to be held together and interior ribs for stability. The sharpener has a constant draft angel of 0.6 degrees and would be made of ABS plastic if put into production.
This product was made in SolidWorks and later rendered in KeyShot.

Knows Eyewear - Glasses Design
EP. 03
Knows Eyewear is a startup glasses company focused on finding everyone's perfect fit. Knows works with empathic design to create glasses that are easily customizable to fit any face. In this studio we work closely with Knows to innovate new ways to ensure the perfect fit of glasses for everyone.
Come take a ‘look’:
The Lola frames are made of a bio-based recyclable material. They are equipped with Knows adjustable temples and interchangeable nose pads to fit every face. The large circular lenses sit at the perfect center of the eyes to give a symmetrical look to the face. This design also gives a more fashion forward yet everyday look.
I also created the Lola Lollapolooza Edit, a new color-way designed to standout at the very popular music festival while also still having many of the standard Knows glasses features. The black frame has a pink and gold sparkles with pink scratch-resistant lenses and rose gold hardware.
During the creative process I created many different prototypes and sketches of different functional glasses that co-inside with the Knows mission of functional fit and wear before ultimately finalizing the Lola design. I used digital sketching to create many different designs, then used foam-core, wire, and eventually 3D printing to create prototypes of the glasses.
Knows Eyewear - Packaging Design
EP. 02
I developed a new packaging look for the Knows glasses. Working with their existing paper tube, I created many iterations and received feedback from Knows which lead to the two final ideas that are shown. One has many different face profiles, showing that Knows is committed to fitting a variety of face shapes. The second incorporated the K logo of Knows which when placed on the shelf would lineup to create the implied vertical aspect of the K.

4 Boards & 5 Books
EP. 01
Project brief: Compose a three-dimensional wooden form that demonstrates the hierarchical arrangement of planar surfaces, combined at right angles, in a visually balanced composition. Consider inherent material qualities while developing a visually interesting object that addresses issues of form, structure, and function.
Using a single plank of 1” thick, 8” wide, and 96” long (nominal dimensions) “clear pine” lumber, design an assemblage of five hardback books whose combined thickness is a minimum of 8-inches. Fabricate and combine no more or less than four (4) contiguous planar elements. All cuts and joinery must be at 90-degree angles. The assembly must be made stable and self-supporting without the use of mechanical fasteners or adhesives.
Successful compositions will consider both wood and book as compositional elements arranged in harmony.
