Below are a sampling of some of the designs and projects I’ve created over the years. From logos to story maps, maps to magazines, I’ve been in the graphic design field since the mid-90s. I love combining the outdoors, design, maps, and information in new and creative ways.
During the pandemic my design work has focused on multi-media storytelling, integrating another love of mine: maps.
I love making things, especially graphics. Even better? Graphics revolving around my true love: thru-hiking. I had a freelance design business for a while, and while I’m more in the hobby phase now, I’m still creating here and there, mostly for fun. Then when I started the business Hikertrash in 2014, I got to translate some designs into actual products. But really, I just want to make things.
My most recent logo collaboration was with Heather “Anish” Anderson.
Anish is a true badass. She thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 60 days, 17 hours, 12 minutes, then wrote a book about it; then I got to hang out with her a bunch when she thru-hiked the Oregon Desert Trail in 2017. Anish returned to the triple crown trails in 2018 and hiked all THREE in one year (called the Calendar Triple Crown), and that trip also meant she had completed the triple triple crown, meaning she had now hiked all three long trails (AT, PCT, CDT) three times each. (I’m not worthy). Anyway, She is a truly lovely human being, and it was great fun to work with her on her logo redesign.
