Making Science Beautiful: Technical Illustration

I worked with principal investigators at Missouri University of Science & Technology on multi-million dollar grant proposals, creating infographics and technical illustrations that clarified new ideas. From aerospace engineering, to materials chemistry, to the ethics of new technologies—I visualized complex faculty research.

Illustrations for a biomedical and chemical process of magnetic yeast separation.

National Science Foundation 

The following design and illustration work was created for faculty submitting to the US government's NSF Research Traineeship Program. I worked to visually clarify data, summarize broad themes, and increase the proposal's persuasive value with clean, beautiful, and informative graphic design. 

Royal Society of Chemistry 

An illustration I created for the cover of the Royal Society of Chemistry's journal. Working closely with research faculty at Missouri S&T, I created this digital illustration from scratch, abstracting complex research on cancer-destroying origami DNA structures.
