Reimagining Stonewall
An exploration of street-level design ideas to interpret the first national park unit dedicated to LGBTQ+ history
My Role: Independent Contractor, Editorial Designer
In May 2023, I was hired by the National Parks Conservation Association to design the layout of a report highlighting landscape and architectural opportunities around the Stonewall Inn National Monument in New York City. In collaboration with several landscape architects, the report compiled case studies of numerous local examples of impactful street-level exhibits and shared ideas for how Stonewall Inn could better utilize the surrounding city space to tell the whole story of this pivotal historical monument. The final 50-page report will be shared with community members, city agencies, and the public to facilitate discussions on additional design opportunities following the recent opening of the National Park visitor’s center opened at the site of the Stonewall Inn.
Marketing Materials
Every company has a need for strong marketing materials which are on-brand and tailored to the audience. Working directly with content and product teams, I layout pieces of editorial collateral including case studies and informative 1-pagers (like are shown below) which can be shared digitally or printed and used for takeaways at events.

“Doubling Down: The Secret Sauce
for Dual-Career Families”
My Role: Book Cover Designer
In 2022, the authors Ilene Gordon and Bram Bluestein and their publicist approached me to design a book cover for “Doubling Down: The Secret Sauce for Dual-Career Families”. The book shares sensible, spot-on advice gleaned from Ilene & Bram’s 42-year marriage and their respective high-powered careers in the C-suite. It was imperative that the book cover represented their approach to balancing career, children, and life in general in an approachable and meaningful way. The book is available for purchase, and a portion of the proceeds support the non-profit organization Girls 4 Science.
