Rise, a Quad Agency

Lead Presentation, Branding, and Visual Designer

October 2024 - present

At Rise, a fast-paced digital agency, I lead visual direction as the sole designer on the Growth Team—overseeing branding, pitch design, and visual storytelling across internal and client work.

  • Rebranded the Growth Team’s identity and visual system

  • Built unique, scalable design systems for speed and consistency

  • Design decks (RFIs, RFPs, proposals), ads, and data visuals that drive storytelling

  • Tailor work to client brands (such as UnitedHealth Group, Claire’s, and Gallo)

  • Deliver high-impact visuals on 1–2 day timelines

Due to NDAs, only select work is shown.

How we got there

I approached the rebrand in three clear, focused phases.

PHASE I: Define the Foundation

  • Built a mood board to reflect the desired energy, style, and feel

  • Used it as a creative compass for visual exploration

PHASE II: Set the Visual Tone

  • Collaborated with the executive team to brainstorm values and key brand traits

  • Aligned on a strategic tone and personality to guide the visual direction

PHASE III: Explore and Finalize

  • Tested multiple color directions through iterative drafts

  • Refined and finalized a cohesive branding guide to anchor all design work

Client-branded Decks

Client decks follow each brand’s visual system, anchored by Rise’s typography and design standards.

I designed every element of these decks, including all advertisements, social media posts, and mock-ups.

Creative & Marketing Collateral

This section features select marketing collateral and mockups from a range of clients like United Healthcare, Gallo (High Noon), and Ethos Pet Brands. Each deck includes dozens of these visuals to bring pitch ideas to life.

For online pitches, I create custom virtual backgrounds for each presenter. Below are examples from the Ethos and Claire’s pitches.
