Selected Work
Decks built to move capital.
Every deck is engineered for a specific outcome — the meeting, the commitment, the close.
VC/LP DECK - Fund Strategy
AmAsia - Fund LP Overview
Institutional-grade LP presentation
SERIES A PITCH DECK
LP FUND OVERVIEW
Cross-border venture fund
Global ambition, institutional restraint
Art direction, presentation design
LP overview for a venture fund operating across the US and Asia. The design gives a global investment thesis the weight and restraint an institutional audience expects — a disciplined grey-and-red system, tracked typography, and stat treatments that make a track record read as authority.
Every slide conveys scale and credibility at a glance, turning a complex cross-border story into a single confident narrative.
FAMILY OFFICE ADVISORY DECK
Boutique investment advisory
Institutional polish for private capital
Art direction, presentation design
Investor and capabilities presentation for a boutique advisory firm connecting private transactions to family-office capital. The design carries the restraint and authority that an institutional finance audience expects — a disciplined navy system, generous white space, and a clear typographic hierarchy that lets complex positioning read as effortless.
Structured so that firm overview, approach, and opportunity each land in a single confident glance. Built to signal credibility before a word is read.
OXFORD REVISITED
Feature film (UK prestige drama)
Friendship, memory, and the weight of what stays unspoken
Pitch deck design, art direction
Investor and co-production pitch deck for Oxford Revisited, a UK-led psychological drama set in 1960s Oxford. The film revolves around a story of friendship, guilt, and post-war memory. The design carries the film's restraint: muted tones, chiaroscuro contrast, and quiet typographic pacing that lets the material's tension build rather than shout.
Structured as a complete financing package — director's vision, tone, world, and strategy — designed to make partners feel the film before a frame is shot.
How I Work—
Three weeks from brief to deck.
A focused, structured process built to keep momentum.
And keep the deal moving.
Story First
We start with the narrative — not the slides. I study your business, your round, and your target audience. Every deck starts with a story skeleton: problem, insight, solution, proof, ask. We get that right before a single slide is designed.
Design to Persuade
Design is the argument made visible. I build a system — typography, color, hierarchy, data visualization — that makes your strongest points land in seconds. Nothing decorative. Every element is doing work.
Refined to Close
Two rounds of structured revision. I address every note with the question: does this change make it more likely to close? The final deck is presentation-ready, leave-behind-ready, and built to answer investor questions before they're asked.
OTHER WORK.
THE GREAT RIDE OF CHINA
Amy Mathieson
An odyssey on two wheels, told in full-color
Coffee-table book design, art direction
Coffee-table book design for The Great Ride of China: A Visual Journey — a photographic travelogue across China, from the karst mountains of Guangxi to the Ming-era towers of Xi'an. The design gives the photography room to breathe: full-bleed images, quiet captions, and a sequence that carries the reader across the country like a journey unfolding.
Everything on the page serves the image; nothing competes with it.
VIETNAM : THROUGH THE LENS
Lily Phan
Faces of a place, seen closely
Coffee-table photo book design, art direction
Photo book design for Vietnam Through the Lens: Portraits of Three Generations; photographer Lily Phan's documentary portrait of Vietnam's multi-ethnic faces, from highlands to islands. The design steps back and lets the portraits lead: full-bleed images, quiet captions, and a sequence organized across generations that carries the reader from one face to the next.
Everything on the page serves the subject, so the reader meets each person, one at a time.
NEUROMARKETING
German Pablo Garcia-Fresco, Ph.D.
Science, made persuasive.
Interior book design
Interior design for Neuromarketing: The Science of Persuasion, a non-fiction book on the neuroscience behind buying decisions. The design turns dense research — frameworks, models, chemistry, case studies — into a clear, navigable reading experience, with a typographic system that structures complex material without ever feeling clinical.
Designed so a reader can move from concept to framework to example without losing the thread.
THE SOMNUS
Ryan A. Krapf
Fiction, brought to life
Interior book design
Interior design for The Somnus, a science-fiction novel about a neural interface that lets readers live inside their favorite stories. The interior sets a clean, confident reading experience — considered typography, careful pacing, and chapter architecture that carries the reader through a fast, cinematic narrative.
The craft is in what you don't notice: type that disappears so the story doesn't.
