Anthology Brand Story
Blackboard was a well-known name in the EdTech market and Anthology was a newly formed group from three companies. After Blackboard and Anthology merged, we developed a set of slides for the sales team to use to present Anthology’s value proposition. This deck was designed to be a scripted introduction to a pitch, a showcase of our refreshed branding, and the tale of where we came from and where we’re going.
Anthology Together 2023
In 2023, Anthology’s annual user conference was in Nashville. We developed a look that married the vibrancy of Music City’s nightlife to the innovations of data in EdTech. Leading an internal creative team as well as outside vendors, this theme was applied to every attendee touchpoint — keynotes, stage designs, product roadmap sessions, presentation templates, a prospectus, digital and printed signage, booths, social media graphics, t-shirts, and swag, to name a few.
Blackboard Elevate 2021
Blackboard’s annual sales kickoff, Elevate, was a virtual event in 2021 during the pandemic. Working with the theme “Reaching New Heights”, we took the visual approach of the Northern Lights meets EdTech. We broadcast the event online from a studio with an LED wall and a host. For keynote speakers who participated remotely, kits with printed backdrops were sent to their homes to create a more unified presentation.
HelioCampus Community Summit
For the HelioCampus Community Summit in 2024, I took the event logo and deconstructed it for the presentation template, spreading the circles across key slides and using the color palette to create options that could be mixed and matched. The feedback from the presenters was that they appreciated the ease of use and the variety of slides. For the keynotes, I continued the same theme, but used a less templated approach.
Blackboard Infographics
At the end of 2019 at Blackboard, we created an infographic to celebrate and share our successes. Soon, with the arrival of the pandemic, it became a series of infographics showcasing the incredible data around the transformation education underwent to meet the needs of virtual learners.
The New York Times Syndicate
The New York Times Syndicate needed help reimagining their outdated pitch decks. I developed a new presentation template that was fresh and better aligned to their brand. This pitch to Vector, a financial institution in Mexico, includes a multimedia mockup of how the syndicated content might be integrated into the existing Vector site.
Concur
After designing a series of SlideShares for Concur, I created this animated reel to showcase the work.
