Print Design
In a world primarily experienced behind glass, creating something tangible and tactile can truly make a difference. A leave-behind, a small welcome booklet, an annual report — seeing a beautifully designed printed piece is exactly what is needed. Let’s talk bleeds, paper stock, and CMYK!
Pocket Information Booklet
Role: Designer / Copy: Hannah DeMarco
Company: American Bible Society
American Bible Society wanted to create a small booklet to welcome its out-of-town guests to the historic Old City Neighborhood, where the ABS office and the hotels where the guests stayed were located. It offered helpful guidance on navigating the area and discovering local businesses and attractions.

CHOP wanted to honor a valued donor with a special gift by creating an illustrated map showcasing all the buildings named after the donor’s family across the city.
Wabash Annual Journal
Role: Art Director and Layout Designer / Copy: Various Contributors
Company: The Wabash Center
I redesigned their annual publication, transforming it from a traditional magazine format into a hybrid piece that works beautifully in print and digital formats.
Karani Trade Show Booth
Role: Designer / Company: Freelance
Karani wanted a tradeshow banner set that included on-brand illustrations, a clear and easy-to-read how-to guide, and a conveniently placed QR code at the bottom. While the initial idea was to use bold, eye-catching graphics, I decided to create a more subdued design to capture attention through minimalism.
Handlettered Gift
Role: Designer and Illustrator
Company: Private Commission
The parents of a kindergarten class commissioned this hand-lettered poster as an end-of-year gift for their teacher. The verse on the poster is the teacher's favorite, bordered by the students' actual signatures.
Epic Church Annual Report
Role: Designer / Copy: Various
Organization: Epic Church in Philadelphia
EPIC Church sought to highlight its community and the city it serves, and to incorporate a touch of “Philly grit” in its annual report. By collaborating with photographers and writers from the church and the leadership team at EPIC, I created a piece that captures the essence of EPIC and the city it serves and shares their story effectively.
Kidz at Heart Annual Report
Role: Art Director and Designer / Company: Freelance
Our primary goal was to craft a gorgeous digital PDF for their website that could also be easily shared via email. At the same time, since stakeholders would receive printed copies at in-person meetings, we ensured the document looked and read beautifully in print, with no hassle.
