Silver Screen
Am I a movie buff? Maybe not, but I love designing merch that connects films to their fans. Through collaborations with Focus Features, Sony, Paramount, and Universal, I’ve worked to bring stories from the big screen into everyday wear. Here are a few of my favorite designs from recent years.

The
Office
As lead designer for official NBCUniversal merchandise, I had the privilege of working on iconic shows including Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Law & Order, and SNL. But The Office will always stand out. Over three years, I worked on a monthly Office t-shirt club as an Amason exclusive in addition to numerous collections on the NBCU branded store. Below are a few of my favorite pieces inspired by television’s most beloved workplace.

Morbid
Podcast
All weirdos are welcome in the world of the comedy true-crime podcast Morbid. A celebration of all things spooky, its merch connects listeners to iconic show catchphrases, reminds us that even in the darkest stories, there’s light, and that being yourself means embracing your inner weird.

Baby, this is Keke Palmer
Keke Palmer’s podcast merchandise captures the fun, wit, and infectious energy that define her brand. Collaborating closely with Palmer, the collection was developed around her iconic phrases and one-liners, translating the voice of the show into bold, wearable designs. Inspired by early-2000s graphic tees and pop culture aesthetics, the line balances irony, humor, and approachability while maintaining a distinct “Keke” personality. The final collection combines expressive typography, playful illustration, and vibrant color to create merchandise that reflects the full range of Palmer’s humor, confidence, and signature sass.
