THINKIFIED BRANDING & APP DEVELOPMENT The purpose of Thinkified is to help thinkers capture early stage ideas, to connect people with complimentary skills, and to bring those ideas to life. Ideas can be kept private or be released into the general domain. Thinkified has been one of my favorite projects to work on. We used the words ‘think’ and ‘verified’ to create a portmanteau. The logo is a CFL bulb created from check marks. I used the common motif of the light bulb to represent ideas and check marks to represent verification, and we got something more as a result. The rest of the brand came together very quickly afterwards. They belong together because they are made from the same elements. I love this logo because of the way it all came together.

THINKIFIED APP SCREEN LAYOUTS These are designs for all of the initial screens for the Thinkified iPhone app. The biggest challenge we wanted to overcome with the design of the app was to give users a sense of strength and security. The primary function of Thinkified, from the user’s perspective, is to capture and store ideas. Users need to feel confident that their concepts will be kept safe and secure.

THINKIFIED FOUNDING THINKER CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN Being consistent with brand is one of the key ways to differentiate yourself from the pack. Good branding increases trust. We wanted our earliest adopters to feel like they were really involved at and be a part of something completely new. We called these people Founding Thinkers. The campaign’s branding is slightly different to Thinkified’s main design elements, but it retains many key elements. Specifically, color, font, and linguistic tone.

RUTH’S CHRIS STEAK HOUSE PRINT, OUTDOOR, AND VIDEO My team and I produced ads for all corporate Ruth’s Chris restaurants and most franchise locations. I have not been involved with the Agency for the last year, but the design processes I established are still going strong. Over 700 print pieces have been published in the last 24 months and over 3,500 projects have been completed since 2009. I created a video that was displayed on the NASDAQ Tower in Times Square on June 11th, 2015. The video was created in honor of the 10th anniversary of Ruth’s Chris going public in 2005. Having my work displayed in such an iconic location was a career highlight for me.
