Golf Tourney in Memory of Coach Willie Zapalac

I'm excited that Championship Hearts Foundation chose me as the graphic designer for the Willie Zapalac Golf Tournament. Willie Frank Zapalac (December 11, 1920 – May 18, 2010) touched the lives of countless young athletes through his multiple years of coaching collegiate football for Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Oklahoma State and the University of Texas.

Coach Zapalac selected Championship Hearts Foundation as recipient of contributions in his memory. Proceeds from the golf tournament will support the programs of the Foundation including free young athlete heart screenings.

Based on Coach Zapalac coaching UT and Texas A&M, I used burnt orange and maroon as the colors for the invitation. For the logo, we felt that it needed to display a football (as that's what Zapalac was known for), and of course, golf. The client was extremely happy with the end result and invitations were mailed last week. I hope that the event is a tremendous success!

For additional information on the tournament or to donate to Championship Hearts Foundation, please visit http://www.coachzapgolf.com/.

CulinART News Coverage

All our hard work paid off...CulinART was featured on KXAN News. You can even see the logo and Powerpoint presentation I designed in the close-up shot at the beginning of the segment. The event was quite a success raising over $30,000 for The Wright House Wellness Center. Woohoo!

Photos shown are after a long night of assembling all of the pyramid table cards (votive candles were inserted in each to illuminate them). I designed the invitations, programs, Powerpoint presentation, and combo table number cards/menus.

CulinART Invitations

I'm excited to announce that I'm the graphic designer for the upcoming March 11th "CulinART" event, which is produced by the Austin Chapter of the International Special Event Society to benefit The Wright House Wellness Center. This is my fourth year participating and I'll be designing everything from the invitations to the programs to the event stationery. Based on the fantasy theme of “Nature’s Labyrinth” and aspects of our planet’s four natural elements (earth, air, fire and water), I've included an image of the trifold invitation I designed. The event will feature cocktails and hors d’oeuvres, silent, live and fine art auctions, and a four course plated dinner with chef demonstrations as part of the entertainment.
