SOCIAL MEDIA GRAPHIC EXAMPLES

San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition (2020) Tasting Event Promotion - 15-Sec Instagram Video Ad
Event marketing to celebrate winners of the largest competition of North American wines at public tasting event, targeting wine enthusiasts who can save a trip to wine country by sipping by the Bay. Highlighting previous year’s event photos and top selling points in a looping video ad asset. The afternoon event had over 4,000 attendees with hundreds of award-winning wines to taste. Created with Adobe Illustrator and After Effects.

San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition (2024) Tasting Event Promotion - 15-Sec Instagram Video Ad
With a hiatus of in-person events since 2020 due to the pandemic, this promotion of the return of the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition public tasting event was to help see if the interest from previous years can be mimicked. Since the last event’s promotion in 2020, I adapted to the vertical video layout to be featured in Instagram Reel’s newsfeed and added royalty-free background music. The event on a rainy February afternoon still led to over 4,000 attendees. Created with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects.

MULTI-PAGE PRINTED EXAMPLES

Opera in the Park by San Francisco Opera Program Guide & Bravo Card Ad (2024)
Thousands of attendees experienced a free opera concert with a San Francisco Chronicle Sunday newspaper with an Opera in the Park Program Guide and Bravo Card to cheer on the performances. Working with our client, the San Francisco Opera, they provided the copy, illustration artwork, headshot photos, and sponsor logos while worked on the layout across 4 - full size broadsheet newspaper pages. The same illustration was utilized on the designed Bravo cheer card. Created with Adobe Indesign.

San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition (2020) Public Tasting Guide
Provided to the San Francisco Chronicle’s Sunday newspaper circulation (223,000 subscribers) and to the 4,000+ attendees of the public tasting event, the Public Tasting Guide highlighted the top 2,100 award-winning wines from the 2020 Wine Competition. I was responsible for the cover page design and new role of organizing the 2,100 list of wines within a 15-page layout. Weeks prior, the winners were announced online and I was provided a 2,300 line spreadsheet of the winners. The stakeholders wanted to see an improvement from previous years’ layout, so I worked in detail to improve the display of the listings across 15 total pages. Created with Adobe InDesign.

BONUS PROJECT

City of Dublin Jr. Warriors Basketball Card Gifts
My daughter participated in Winter Leagues of Jr. Warriors Basketball during 2025 and 2026. I was happy to be involved with both teams and take photos throughout the season, which led to gifting all of my daughter’s teammates and coaches replica basketball cards. My daughter was excited to help name her both teams the same: Golden Penguins. I was able to create branding for their team and provide the girls stickers for their water bottles.
