Industry Experience

Consumer Goods, Retail, Media & Entertainment, Manufacturing
    uniE621 Black Husky Brewing - Ahead of the Pack
    For this project, I was commissioned by a local brewery to design limited-edition packaging for a Thanksgiving seasonal release. Known for their Husky-focused branding, the brewery requested a 1950s American Realism-inspired illustration to align with their identity. I created a hand-lettered title and custom Husky artwork, complemented by a full gloss finish and metallic accents around the neck and logo—resulting in a nostalgic, eye-catching design that reflects both the beer’s German style and the brand’s personality.

    uniE621 Mystic Cult - Still Water
    For this project, I was commissioned to design both the logo and can artwork for a startup entering the beverage industry with its first product—a canned water. The client had a clear vision, aiming for a design that echoed the bold, edgy aesthetic of established brands like Liquid Death, but with a more simplified execution. The final design features a high-gloss finish for a clean, crisp appearance, complemented by silver embellishments within the logo’s drip elements. The custom logo reflects the gritty, rebellious tone the client desired, while the metallic detailing adds a subtle shimmer effect as the can moves—enhancing visual impact on the shelf.
    uniE621 Highwaters - THC Seltzer
    I was hired to develop the branding and packaging design for a new THC-infused seltzer line by Central Waters Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The product launched with three distinct flavors, and the client approached us with a clear vision: bold, vibrant designs featuring strong typography and bright color palettes. A key requirement was the use of a signature deep blue, which appears consistently across all three cans. The packaging was produced with a matte finish, allowing the metallic deep blue accents to create a subtle, eye-catching shimmer on the shelf—adding a refined yet energetic presence to the product line.
