A fast-turnaround iOS and Android event app for New Orleans’ annual festival of light, art, and technology.
LUNA Fête is a free public festival that brings light-based art, projection mapping, installations, and interactive experiences into downtown New Orleans. This app project supported one of the festival’s early mobile experiences, helping attendees explore installations, artists, event details, maps, and sponsor information during the event.
I designed the app screens for iOS and Android on a tight deadline so the experience could be available in time for the festival. The design included a home screen and navigation, an artwork listing with images, individual artwork pages with details, artist information, viewing times, an updated map view, and a partners/sponsors section.
The app reached roughly 1,900 unique users during an event with an estimated 35,000–40,000 attendees. Usage included more than 1,600 iOS users and 250 Android users, with activity peaking during the festival. Engagement also included hundreds of artwork-related interactions, including “Viewed It” clicks during and after the event.
The project was quick, practical, and event-driven: get people the information they needed, make the installations easier to explore, and give the festival a usable mobile companion in time for launch.

A campaign-style website with parallax sections, animated atmosphere, and recipe-focused content.
This project was designed during the height of parallax-heavy campaign websites, where scrolling, atmosphere, motion, and layered visuals were a major part of the experience.
I designed website sections that used sweeping backgrounds, billowing smoke effects, layered movement, and visual moments built around the Fireball brand. Some sections included video backgrounds, including drink-pour footage, while others focused on recipes, product content, and branded storytelling.
A major part of the site was a recipe system for drinks and food pairings, using color, imagery, and structured layouts to make recipes easier to browse and visually connect back to the brand. I also contributed lightly to a related mobile game app, though the website design was the primary focus shown here.

A destination app helping visitors explore beaches, local places, weather, water safety, and trip details.
This iOS and Android app project was created for Visit South Walton to help travelers explore the area’s beaches, restaurants, shops, and visitor resources.
The app went through a full product design process, moving from whiteboard planning and low-fidelity wireframes into Balsamiq flows and higher-fidelity mockups. The experience included a home screen with weather and beach flag conditions, water-safety information, sunrise and sunset timing, beach details, places to eat and shop, favorites, and discovery tools similar to the beach-finder experience.
The app was built and launched, and the project remains a strong example of destination-focused mobile UX, travel planning, local discovery, and practical visitor information design.

A mobile app helping people find local seafood, browse recipes, and learn how to cook Gulf Coast catches.
The Gulf Coast Seafood Finder app helped users find local seafood and explore recipes tied to Gulf seafood products.
I designed the app experience from early sketchbook wireframes through higher-fidelity screens. The design included a custom home screen, seafood finder form, results/listing views, recipe listings, individual recipe pages, and filtering tools to help users narrow recipes by seafood type or cooking interest.
The project combined local food promotion, mobile discovery, recipe browsing, and practical utility. It was part of a broader effort to help people find, cook, and support Gulf Coast seafood.

A public-facing seafood website designed around local stories, videos, recipes, and product discovery.
This website extended the Gulf Coast Seafood experience into a richer web presence focused on local seafood, recipes, videos, and education.
I designed the website interface, including the structure for featured videos, seafood stories, recipe browsing, filters, and recipe-detail pages. The recipe system required careful layout and filtering work so users could browse seafood dishes, narrow results, and find useful cooking information.
The site was built in-house and supported a larger campaign effort to promote Gulf Coast seafood, highlight local content, and help users move from interest to cooking and buying.

A prototype interface for browsing plant information and care guidance tied to a hydroponics concept.
EarthPrime was a prototype for a plant-care and reference experience connected to a hydroponics system concept.
The idea began with more ambitious identification and plant-care interactions, including the possibility of recognizing or looking up plants. As the technical direction became clearer, the concept shifted toward a reference-style resource database where users could browse plants, plant care requirements, and understand how to maintain them.
My work focused on interface exploration, screen design, and shaping the product into a more realistic plant information experience.

A skincare product website with category-based color systems, product pages, and custom HTML/CSS.
DermAware is a skincare product line created by a biochemist, with products organized across different skincare needs and categories.
I designed the site’s visual system, including a category-based color approach that carried through section headings, product areas, and supporting styles. I designed the product line pages, individual product pages, and broader website interface to make the product categories easier to navigate.
I also built the site’s HTML and CSS myself, working with an engineer to connect the templates and styles into the ASP-driven site structure. This project combined visual design, product organization, front-end development, and practical collaboration with engineering.

Campaign infographics designed to promote Gulf Coast seafood through simple, visual, shareable facts.
These infographics were created as campaign materials for Gulf Coast Seafood, using visual storytelling to highlight seafood facts, product information, and regional promotion.
The work focused on creating graphic layouts that could communicate quickly, support the broader seafood campaign, and make key information more approachable and shareable.

A mobile app redesign focused on modernizing account tools, icons, colors, and utility-service navigation.
This project focused on redesigning key account-tool areas of the Entergy mobile app.
The work modernized the visual style of the app’s utility sections, including iconography, color, section styling, and interface patterns for common customer needs such as payments, outages, news, and account-related tools.
While the project is older and more limited in scope than my current product work, it reflects early mobile interface design experience for a large utility service and a practical focus on making important account actions easier to identify.
