As a constantly evolving designer, I’m passionate about creating engaging learning materials that capture audiences. My training manuals and field trip guides go beyond the expected, incorporating design elements that spark curiosity and retention. In fact, my latest field trip guide is under consideration by Zion National Park for their Junior Ranger program!

Training Manual Samples
Zion Travel Journal
This sample field trip manual for Zion National Park, designed for 8th graders, served as the inspiration for Utah State University’s Junior Master Naturalist Program. Created using Microsoft Publisher, it was intended to be printed double-sided and cut in half for spiral binding, resulting in a compact and convenient field guide.
Adult Learning Training Manual Sample
While most of my training manuals from my time with the USAF are classified, I can share this sample on recharging electric batteries, which has demonstrably reduced accidents and equipment damage. I am solely responsible for each aspect of the design process from Planning to Evaluation for all aspects you see here including image capture, formatting, and text instructional content, using the USAF standards for SOJT publication.
Graphic Design Samples
The RAI logo reflects my latest brand development. The lotus symbol represents growth and enlightenment, supporting the mission to build better humans through education. Designed using Adobe InDesign and Canva, the strategic color palette of teal, beige, and lavender was chosen to convey trust, calm, and creativity.
Passionate traveller & video editor. Skilled in graphic design to elevate your instruction. This logo, made in Photoshop & InDesign, reflects my adventurous spirit & multi-faceted approach.
Custom Logo Design
I crafted a logo for an English-speaking, Baja California Sur, health & wellness directory. Leveraging Photoshop, InDesign & textured elements, the idea was to create a brand identity that resonates with international audiences but still depicts the lifestyle of living on the Baja peninsula.
Continuing with the “B” theme…. I designed this custom logo for a Change Management joint venture start-up. Leveraging Photoshop, I created a simple and eye-catching design through color blending and a unique lettering style to resonate with potential learners and depict a simple, yet formidable appearance that helped build the branding for the company’s future marketing plans.
