PORTFOLIO
PRODUCTION&DESIGN
ABOUT ME
Passion, efficiency, and determination have formed not only
who I am as an individual, but who I want to become as a
professional in the forever evolving advertising industry. I am
extremely organized and vibrantly conceptual, which has
guided me to amazing opportunities throughout my educa-
tion. I currently work as the South Dakota Advertising Federa-
tion intern where I assist planning and executing events and
help organize and manage memberships. Prior to that, I
worked as the Account Executive for the Famous For Meats
internship team at Fresh Produce LLC, where I gained experi-
ence working in a creative agency. I had the opportunity to
act as the liaison between the agency and the intern team,
handle all scheduling and client communication, and meet
some of the most talented people in the Sioux Falls market.
My willingness to work hard and my dedication to produce
the best work I possibly can has been my key to success thus
far. I have developed an interest in media buying, SEO and
analytics, and I am willing to entangle myself in any opportu-
nity that allows me to apply and expand my skillset. Dark
chocolate covered almonds, running, and sudoku are just a
few things that tickle my fancy, but I am sure we can find
something to chat about.
2. IN CLASS ASSIGNMENTS
Project: Pick a brand and visually capture
their brand identity through emoticons.
My Work: I selected Target and created
three emoticons- a target bag, popcorn,
and Spot, the Target dog.
EMOTICON BAD AD CAMPAIGN
Project: Select an unsuccessful advertising
campaign and develop a new designs and
messaging to make it better.
My Work: I chose“The Perfect“Body””
campaign ran by Victoria’s Secret to
promote their new bra line that has the
perfect fit, perfect comfort, and perfect
softness. I chose this campaign because it
advertises that women who are extremely
thin and it sets unhealthy and unrealistic
standards of the“perfect body”. In my ad
revamp, I wanted the focus of the
advertisements to be on how the perfect
bra fit makes any woman feel like an angel,
regardless of their size or shape. I changed
the slogan from“The Perfect Body”to“Your
Perfect Body”and the women wearing the
bras are of all different demographics.
3. EVENT CALENDAR
Client: Brookings Convention & Visitors Bureau
Project: Event Calendar Update
My Work: My goal for this project was to create an event calendar that
catches the attention of the community while providing them with
information on what is going on in Brookings throughout the month.

The client provided
feedback on my initial
poster (shown on the
left), which inspired my
final poster design (on
the right). The first
version of the calendar
had a lot of unnecessary
repetition and was very
busy. I changed it to
include pictures of the
community as well as
removed some of the
clutter from the design.

“Partnership Packs”given away at local community

6. EVENT PROMOTION
Client: Brookings Convention & Visitors Bureau
Project: Create a campaign to help raise awareness for Downtown at Sundown, a Brookings summer concert series.
The Group’s Work: Our group came up with ways to promote the event and encourage community involvement through targeting different
demographics. We encouraged businesses to stay open later and have special deals on the night of the event to bring in more revenue for
them and raise attendance at the event. We also wanted to bring in the SDSU student population by hosting an end of the year preview
while the majority of the student body is still on campus, providing the students with insight into the event as well as familiarizing them with
the Brookings community. Other marketing efforts would include theme nights and special discounts.
7. INSURANCE BRAND
Client: Nationwide Farm Insurance- Paulson Marketing
Project: Create a campaign for Nationwide Agribusiness insurance that helps
Nationwide maintain their market share.

when they need you on theirs.”We really wanted to make a point to Nationwide
clientele that Nationwide is a business ran on core values of trust, reliability, and
