Columbus Metropolitan Library Projects

I am the Columbus Metropolitan Library's main photographer. I manage scheduling, taking photos, and editing headshots of all the employees, updated photos of our branches, events, and customers using the library. I also photograph promotional items.

This project was developed for the Columbus Metropolitan Library's Special Collections Unit. It was based off of the TikTok series. The goal was to create a character-driven design that could be applied to various merchandise items.

To help bring customers into the library, we brought in a giant insects exhibit! I illustrated and designed pieces to promote it and special programming.

Columbus, Ohio is very close to the path of totality for the 2024 solar eclipse. The library went all out to celebrate. I photographed and designed many pieces to promote this event.

One of the other departments came to us to request a wallscape that hangs on the side of the Bosco Building. 
The request was to have Lily show that books and libraries are magical.

The friday before the Columbus Book Festival, the Development team puts on a Preview Party.

This year, the theme was Plot Twist. I designed the koosie, invitations, stickers, buttons, and photographed the event.

For the 2024 Summer Reading Challenge, I chose to do a silhouette of the character within a solid color box. The design was liked so much that the team decided to use it again for 2025. I did updated the activity booklet and add some posters and bookmarks so it was not the exact same both years.

Duckling Day is an event at the Whetstone Branch.
It started out as a celebration of the book, Make Way For Ducklings.

In 2023, I managed the branding around our sesquicentennial celebration. I chose the colors, design elements, and layouts.
