A bit ago, we started shooting videos at MCM for our “New Product Saturdays” campaign. At the outset, though, our set was a bit…bland. Essentially, we were shooting at a table I built with a cinder block wall backdrop. To add some interest, I thought it would be cool to add some branding in the…
MCM’s Tier 1 team attends and Aaron’s vendor-only trade show each year. For 2016, they were looking to update their presence. I conceptualized, photographed, copywrote and designed two banners to sit at the front of their trade show booth. Positive feedback from the show illustrated that the banners served their purpose well, as MCM was…
Yesterday was a busy day. It was the fourth birthday of Raspberry Pi, as well as the launch of the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. As I was cruising Facebook, something familiar appeared. The hero image of a Make: post featured a picture of Eben Upton, the founder of the Raspberry Pi giving a talk….

MCM’s Tier 1 team needed a couple of signs to help promote off Tenma’s two strengths; their soldering and test equipment. I shot, wrote copy and designed these, then had them printed at eSigns.com.
As MCM Electronics went to a new web platform in 2011, I was in charge of implementing a new front-end. All XHTML and CSS was custom written and integrated into the .NET C# back-end. jQuery was used as the javascript library of choice. Since, the website has undergone many front-end changes that I’ve implemented. Nearly…
As part of the marketing materials created for various Raspberry Pi computer models, I created several 3/4 illustrations, which were used in various banners and displays.
Johnstone Supply is a US leader in the distribution of HVAC repair parts. Their company is comprised of hundreds of individually owned stores all over North America.
