Forex

WEB DESIGN / CREATIVE DIRECTION

I collaborated with GAIN Capital's exceptional in-house design team to create this landing page. My main emphasis for this project was on the graphics positioned above the fold.

Dana Lowrey

CD DESIGN / CREATIVE DIRECTION

Dana Lowrey, a singer-songwriter hailing from Queensland's Gold Coast in Australia, was the focus of a CD design project.
