Selected Work

A small, curated collection of projects. Each one represents a specific problem I found interesting — a layout challenge, a typographic decision, or a content structure that needed solving.

Projects

The Willamette Review

Cascade Architecture

Portfolio site for a Portland architecture firm. The brief was simple: let the photography breathe. I built a single-page layout with full-bleed images, minimal chrome, and a type system inspired by mid-century architectural monographs. Zero JavaScript dependencies.

Meridian Quarterly

Design and development for an independent quarterly magazine's digital edition. The core problem was making long-form journalism comfortable to read on screens of every size. Solved it with a fluid typographic scale, generous margins, and a reading width that adapts to viewport width.
