Brand/UI
I design identities and digital experiences that turn complicated ideas into something people can understand and connect with.
My work spans brand systems, websites, and digital product experiences, built with structure, personality, and a clear reason behind every choice.

01 / KITMANLABS / PROJECT CONTEXT
THE CHALLENGE
Kitman Labs had the intelligence and technology to support high-performing organizations, but its digital presence did not fully reflect the depth of the platform or the people behind it.
The challenge was to bring clarity and personality to a complex product by building a brand and website experience that felt confident, human, and built for performance.
Complex platform
A multi-layered product required clearer structure and navigation.
Disconnected identity
The digital experience needed a stronger, more cohesive visual voice.
Lacked human Impact
The brand needed a clearer connection to the athletes and organizations it serves.
01 / KITMANLABS / BRAND DIRECTON
STRATEGY &
BRAND SYSTEM
The new direction was built around a simple idea: performance intelligence is ultimately about people.
I developed a visual system that balanced technical precision with human energy, using bold typography, high-contrast photography, electric blue accents, and a structured layout language designed to scale across the brand and website.
DESIGN FOCUS
Put human performance at the center of the story

Clarify a complex offering through stronger hierarchy

Build a more distinct and confident visual identity

Create a flexible system for digital and brand touchpoints

DIGITAL EXPERIENCE
The website redesign translated a dense, multi-layered platform into a bold digital experience.
Through updated information architecture, purposeful page structure, and a stronger UI system, the site helps audiences understand what Kitman Labs does, who it supports, and why its platform matters.
01 / KITMANLABS / ART DIRECTION
VISUAL LANGUAGE
Kitman Labs works with complex data, but the brand story needed to feel immediate and human. The visual language was built around a clear progression: Plan. Prepare. Perform.
This framework gave the platform a more emotional entry point. Rather than leading only with analytics and technology, the brand connects intelligence to the real outcome behind the data: helping people and teams reach their potential.
BLUEPRINT/PLAN
Every performance journey starts with a plan. Blueprint positioned Kitman Labs as the system that turns complex data into clear, actionable direction.
UNLOCKED/PREPARE
Insight only matters when it helps people act. Unlocked connected the platform to readiness giving teams the intelligence they need to prepare with purpose and confidence.
LIMITLESS/PERFORM
The final expression brings the story back to the human outcome. Limitless represents performance without barriers: athletes and organizations equipped to reach what is possible.
01 / KITMANLABS / RESULT
OUTCOME
The Kitman Labs redesign brought clarity and confidence to a complex performance intelligence platform. Through a stronger visual identity, athlete led storytelling, and a more structured website experience, the work connected the power of the technology to the people and organizations behind it.
The redesign was recognized for its design and execution in 2023, earning honors from both The One Club for Creativity Denver and Ad Club Colorado.

THE CHALLENGE
GroweLab started with a big purpose and a very early product foundation: help schools move beyond scattered spreadsheets, disconnected systems, and professional development that is difficult to track or act on.
The challenge was to help define a platform that could feel useful and intuitive for educators, scalable for school leaders, and encouraging for the people using it every day.
Growing Platform
The platform needed an experience that could support more tools, users, and workflows.
Complex Workflows
Coaches and educators needed clearer paths through observations, feedback, and progress tracking.
Connected Support
The experience needed to help districts and educators feel guided, recognized, and supported.

BRAND SYSTEM
Through persona development and collaboration with the engage2learn team, we explored what teachers, instructional coaches, and school leaders needed from a professional learning system: less administrative friction, clearer progress tracking, more useful feedback, and a way to make growth feel visible and meaningful.
That thinking shaped both the product and the identity. I developed a brand and interface system that feels optimistic and encouraging while still supporting the complexity of a professional education platform.

Badges, milestones, and progress indicators help reinforce the purpose of the experience: supporting educators through meaningful growth and recognizing their progress along the way.
Supportive
Guidance and feedback designed to help educators feel encouraged at every step.
