I served as a product designer, illustrator, and brand developer across an unusually wide range of novelty, gift, and specialty items. What began as an accidental email turned into an 11‑year creative partnership where you helped shape multiple product lines from concept to shelf.

Your Key Contributions
Developed branding and visual identities for several of the company’s sub‑brands, including:

Lucky Shot

My Stuck Glass

Flying Monkeys

War Monkey Collectors Armory

Cobra Braid

Your Moon Phase

Created packaging, logos, and product graphics that gave each line its own personality while still fitting within the company’s quirky, adventurous brand voice.

Designed product concepts ranging from novelty toys to drinkware, paracord gear, bullet‑themed accessories, and collectible items.

Illustrated characters and mascots, including the signature monkey branding used across signage, packaging, and promotional materials.

Built retail‑ready displays and point‑of‑purchase materials, such as the Fairy Dust display and other countertop units.

Collaborated directly with the owner to refine ideas, troubleshoot production challenges, and create designs that were cost‑effective to manufacture.

Provided consistent long‑term creative support, becoming a go‑to designer for new product launches, rebrands, and seasonal updates.

Adapted your style across wildly different product categories, demonstrating versatility in illustration, branding, and packaging design.

Impact
Helped 2 Monkey Trading grow a diverse product catalog with strong visual identities.

Contributed to multiple successful product lines that became staples of the company’s offerings.

Provided stability and creative direction during more than a decade of continuous collaboration.
