Other Work Samples
My portfolio is a constant work in progress, and I know that I haven't had an opportunity to showcase all of the skills and knowledge I possess in the three pieces that are presented on my site. As I continue to polish portfolio pieces and write up more complete case studies to highlight other skills, I wanted to provide a sort of raw section of projects that could be picked through to gain a glimpse into my other work from graduate school. These are by no means meant to serve as full portfolio pieces, but if you are looking for a particular skill you can scan the projects below and pick out the samples that may give you a better idea of my competence in an area.
