Senior Graphic Designer/Department of Defense Contractor - Unitech (Universal Systems and Technology, Inc.) - Orlando, FL

My first DOD contract was a large series of e-learning modules for the United States Navy. My task was to take a detailed storyboard and adapt it creatively as lesson content using a variety of software tools. Another exciting aspect to my job was UI Design. Two of the Navy Training Modules, Hull Technician and Machinery Repair were assigned to me for the creation of a new and unique UI. In keeping with the environment that the students (Navy Sailors) are familiar with, I designed both of the interface treatments using actual photo-imagery from the Naval Training Station that would be putting the lessons to work. Other tasks included a series of Unitech logo redesign treatments, booth signage at I/ITSEC 2006 & 2007, UI and content for demo discs presented to the United States Air Force and other potential Unitech clients and I was the primary designer for the new unitech1.com. I also did some work as a 3D texture artist on a potential project for the United States Navy.
