Icon specializes in updating cult classic Sport Utility Vehicles (60s/70s Toyota Land Cruisers and Ford Broncos) with modern features and amenities. While their product is meticulously designed, their website still had that pre-responsive clunkiness—a style whose death gave way to an era of lavish minimalism and breathing space with the adoption of vertical scrolling.

My revamp demonstrated how an interactive marketing tool like a website can not only be highly functional, but unfold before you luxuriously like a beautifully designed coffee table book or brochure.

As their sole in-house graphic and ux/ui designer—a role more akin to that of a company’s Creative Director—I was entrusted with developing and managing the visual identity of Brilliant Earth, and advancing design standards throughout their digital presence. Within the first six months, my concepts and methods proved (through rigorous a/b testing) to strengthen brand power and enhance user experience. The visual strategies I spearheaded have been consistently current, exciting and bold, matching the company’s rate of growth and desired competitiveness within its market. I enjoy knowing the effects of my work are reflected in the pride my employers and coworkers feel seeing their company represented professionally in the world.

I served as Creative Director of the company rebrand and website rebuild—taking new brand identity guidelines and bringing them to life. This project included developing and building an entirely new website, and consistent, on-brand designs and branding collateral for all of Kyo's marketing channels. I created icons, illustrations, and computer graphics as part of this build. The rebrand and site has been extremely well-received by the leadership team, clients, and staff alike.
