Project #5 - Presentation Design

September 2021 - Present

At William Blair (contracted through Williams Lea), I led the design and production of hundreds of high-stakes presentations - pitch decks, internal comms, and data-drvien reports, each crafted with accessibility and brand alignment in mind,

I bring a full Adobe skillset - Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop, Acrobat Pro - into play when custom graphics, infographics, or print pieces are needed to complement a deck.

The decks you see here are a mix of freelance and example work. For instance, I created Wertzer (the company, and the presentation) to make a sample presentation template, like you would at my previous position. From there, bankers would edit these to make their own presentations.

These projects were completed for various clients in different capacities. I try to have fun when making new work. In the future, I want to expand to more varied and custom typography, as well as other areas of design.
