Global Proposal Graphic Designer
My illustrations served as the primary visual anchor (the hero graphic) in both written and oral presentations. Cloud computing is a complex concept, especially for AWS customers in defense and commercial industries, where decision-makers are often business executives rather than technical experts. Each day, I transformed intricate technical ideas into clear, compelling visuals that made proposals more accessible. These illustrations helped customers grasp the essence of our solutions quickly, enhancing their understanding of the written proposal and reinforcing the narrative during presentations.
Technical Systems Into Stories
This illustration visualizes a very complex and highly technical system into an easy-to-follow visual that supports Amazon Executive presentations to customers. Through layered design, clean line work, directional flows, and selective color highlights, it simplifies the connections between many moving parts. The composition guides the eye from real-world elements at the top, through analysis in the middle, to a data foundation at the bottom—turning technical depth into a clear and modern visual story.
Problem
Explaining this concept to clients was difficult and often confusing in written documents presentations.
Solution
I created a clear visual illustration that simplifies the system and makes it easy for clients to understand and for Amazon to reuse for future proposal pursuits.
Cloud Migration As a Journey
This illustration reimagines the AWS migration process as a clear, narrative-driven journey that makes a highly technical topic easier for clients to follow. Instead of a flat checklist of steps, the design uses perspective, spatial flow, and color to show how organizations move from assessment through mobilization to migration and modernization. By turning the process into a visual path, it communicates progress, simplifies complexity, and helps clients see migration as a transformation story rather than just a technical exercise.
Problem
The original migration process graphic felt static and checklist-like, making it harder for clients to connect with the story of moving to the cloud.
Solution
Created a layered visual journey that brings the process to life, guiding the eye through each phase in a way that is engaging, intuitive, and easier for clients to understand during executive presentations.
Connected Team
This illustration shows how a connected team operates seamlessly across domains. At sea with ships and submarines, on shore, in the field, and within a secured operations hub. Each numbered point highlights the different environments where coordination and communication are critical, from naval forces to ground teams to command centers. By visualizing all domains in one ecosystem, the illustration makes it easy for decision-makers to understand how technology integrates diverse teams into a unified mission.
Problem
Explaining the full scope of connectivity technology would take many pages of text and overwhelm stakeholders.
Solution
Visualizing it in one integrated illustration simplifies the story, supplements the written proposal, and strengthens oral presentations by focusing attention on the most important areas.
Connected City
This illustration shows how a connected city ecosystem integrates renewable energy, lighting, water, HVAC, EV charging, and delivery management into a single platform. It highlights how operators and managers can use analytics and dashboards to oversee performance, optimize resources, and coordinate services across an entire portfolio. The value of the illustration is that it turns a complex set of technologies into one clear visual, helping stakeholders quickly understand scope, pinpoint discussion areas, and see the benefits at a glance.
Problem
Managing energy, infrastructure, and city services across multiple systems is complex and fragmented, and explaining the full range of technologies in writing alone would require many pages of detail.
Solution
This illustration provides an immediate visual overview of the integrated platform, while also serving as a foundation for further explanation in written or oral form. In orals especially, it demonstrates professionalism and clarity, showing stakeholders that the team can communicate complex ideas in a polished, simple, and memorable way.
