    uniE621 Broadmoor World Arena Experiential Invitation Design
    Project Link: https://www.behance.net/gallery/237726409/Colorado-Springs-World-Arena-Wold-Tour-Invitation Creative Direction & Design: Julie Davis For the Colorado Springs World Arena’s 10th Anniversary VIP Donor Celebration, “Ten Years of Cheers,” I developed an invitation concept that extended beyond traditional print design to become part of the event experience itself. Inspired by the evening’s international “World Tour” theme, the invitation was designed as a luxury passport, positioning each guest as a VIP traveler embarking on a global celebration. The piece combined formal gala aesthetics with playful travel-inspired elements, including gold foil passport styling, editorial invitation typography, and vintage-style international stamp graphics. During the event, guests interacted with their invitations by collecting passport stamps at each international destination, transforming the invitation into a functional part of the experience and a memorable keepsake. The project demonstrates my approach to experiential storytelling through design, where print, branding, and guest interaction work together to create a cohesive event narrative.

    Proposal Presentation (Pitch Deck) Design

    IndyCar Indy Lights Sponsor Pitch Deck

    For this project, I designed a comprehensive sponsor proposal presentation for an IndyCar Indy Lights team, managing the project from concept to completion. The goal was to create a visually engaging and professional presentation that clearly communicated the team’s value proposition to potential sponsors.

    I developed the overall concept, visual hierarchy, and layout, incorporating brand elements, compelling graphics, and data visualization to make key information stand out.
    The final presentation balances high-impact visuals with clarity, ensuring the content is persuasive, cohesive, and easy to navigate — effectively positioning the team to attract sponsorship opportunities.

    Key Highlights
    Full concept-to-completion design
    Custom visual branding, photography and graphics aligned with team identity
    Clear information hierarchy and data visualization for sponsor insights
    Engaging layout and presentation flow to maximize impact
