Cubcoats
Worked as an illustrator and designer where I helped bring to life our own signature characters as well as the characters licensed from companies such as Disney, Marvel, Lucasfilm, NBC Universal, and Sanrio. Was a key developer in introducing the personalities of our signature line of characters through the use of print, social media, and even our own series of children’s books. Designed in-house fonts as well as helped to create an illustration asset library which are regularly utilized in company social media, print and product display. On the licensing side, I had the opportunity to work on characters known to children and adults alike across the globe through projects that include both package illustration as well as trade fair booth design.
