Reframing complex topics to empower audiences.
Chicago Backyards, a supplement to Backyard Adventures

2017
Chicago Backyards was an in-house supplement to Backyard Adventures by SCITECH. I called upon on-staff experts in horticulture, taxidermy, and entomology for their expertise, and created these exhibits end-to-end. The final displays represent Chicagoland nature and PNNM’s mission through collections objects, living specimens, and interactives.
Our House: Rethinking Home in a Changing Climate

On-site 2017, then traveling
Our House explores what climate change is, how it directly impacts communities across the United States, and how we can use our ingenuity to design safer structures that are also better for the environment.
Content I developed spurred a new $25,000 gift from a company which became a repeat sponsor. In-house evaluation concluded that visitors came away with an understanding of the main climate change and sustainability messages told in the exhibition.
Sample Templates
Airtable
2015
In the weeks leading up to Airtable’s official launch in 2015, I worked with Founder and CEO Howie Liu to create a series of sample templates. These templates showcase Airtable’s early functionality and versatility for a variety of B2B and B2C use cases.
Airtable still offers the Restaurant Field Guide as of this writing.
