There's no better time to innovate than now. Or now. Or even right now. Life-changing technology isn't waiting for the future; it’s happening right at this very moment. ​

For this concept, we show what Dell Technologies is doing now by using the 'O' in NOW as a window to the present. ​

There are so many places a job can take you. The highest peak in North America, the lowest point in the Grand Canyon, an oil rig off the coast of the Atlantic. Places that ordinary technology just won’t cut it. Lucky for you, nowhere and no job is off limits for your rugged laptop.

This concept was selected and video was awarded to renowned director Henrik Hansen from RSA Films. However, the project had to pivot to a CGI concept due to COVID-19 resctrictions.

Imagery in all assets is FPO.

Videographer Gold Award (Award of Distinction)

Yes, the word rugged means “durable,” “well built” and “strong,” but that doesn’t quite define the Latitude 7220 Rugged Extreme. This machine has the capability to work in nearly any condition, anywhere on the planet, places that would render ordinary tablets useless. However, Rugged doesn't just survive in these dangerous environments. It thrives.

The bus wrap was designed to promote the UTRGV College of Fine Arts, featuring the UTRGV campaign, "We Will." This project serves as an inspiration for what artists can achieve in the RGV. It highlights various disciplines within the College of Fine Arts through a blend of photography, stock images, and hand-drawn illustrations created by me. My goal was to capture and represent the multi-disciplinary nature of the College of Fine Arts.

The UTPA Office of Marketing and Communications recently relocated; it wanted to have a presence in the building and showcase who it is with wall decals on the hallway and throughout the office. The project was composed of four panels on the main hallway, a wall located in an area dedicated to brainstorm and a separation wall in the graphic design area. The first three panels show the name of the offices housed in the building, the fourth panel has inspirational phrases about creativity, advertising and public relations.  Each of these walls were strategically designed to represent its respective area.

The Office for Student Involvement (OSI) is dedicated to enriching students' experiences and nurturing their talents through programs that encourage active participation in campus activities and organizations. The "Be Involved" campaign was designed to highlight the diverse programs offered by UTPA OSI. My contributions to this campaign included creating identity word marks, posters, rack cards, e-blasts, digital media, t-shirts, and window decals. By utilizing cohesive typography, color schemes, and graphic elements, I ensured a unified look across all campaign materials. This campaign aimed to demonstrate the transformative power of student involvement, showing that students can BE transformed, BE heard, BE the change, BE a leader and BE whoever they want to be.

The UTRGV Legislative Priorities booklet was developed for the 84th Legislative Session in Austin, TX. This booklet provides an overview of The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, outlining its priorities for funding the Medical School and expanding the university across the Rio Grande Valley. It also includes detailed information on the demographics and psychographics of the South Texas population. Given the extensive information that needed to be included, I used infographics and other visual strategies to present the data in a more engaging and visually appealing way. Ultimately, this brochure successfully helped the University get the necessary funding for the Medical School.
