The Investor - Owned Utility Model
Project Overview
I served as the designer for the Institute for Local Self-Reliance, creating an infographic illustrating the impact of investor-owned utilities on local communities. The objective was to visually convey how these utilities operate, imposing high energy bills on communities while channeling profits to investors, thereby disadvantaging local residents.
Approach and Key Features
I utilized minimalist design with lined icons to convey the operational model of investor-owned utilities, emphasizing the flow of profits and advantages away from local communities. I employed a strategic organization of content to streamline the narrative and highlight the detrimental effects on local economies and environments.
Impact
The infographic received praise from the Institute for Local Self-Reliance for effectively explaining a complex concept and engaging the audience, advancing awareness of the issue.

 A Holly Jolly Christmas : Visualizing the crisis events of Christmas 2022
Project Overview
In the creation of the Holly Jolly Christmas infographic for the Information is Beautiful Design Competition, I took on the role of conceptualization and design. This project aimed to visually depict the occurrence of violent events on a single day, December 2022, using Christmas illustrations and symbolism.
Approach and Key Features
Given the infographic's ironic theme, I opted to utilize holiday illustrations to convey the stark contrast between the festive season and the grim reality of violence worldwide. Through a wintry forest setting, Christmas trees were adorned with decorations representing both the victims and the regions affected by violent events, offering a poignant visual narrative.
Impact or Results
Although the infographic did not secure victory in the competition, it garnered attention from both my personal and professional circles for its creativity and distinctive approach to presenting data. The project served as a testament to the power of design in sparking meaningful conversations and eliciting emotional responses.
