The following is my own personal branding. I have spent so much time perfecting my brand, knowing that as a designer it is so important and representative of my artistry. I created something that I am truly proud of. I made sure to keep it simple, with a pretty strict color scheme and not many varying symbols. Little details like the "r" in Brody and the "L" in Lyons connecting as one transformed my name into not just a name, but a logo.​​​​​​​

This is one of my proudest achievements. In the Winter and Spring of 2023, I was a hybrid intern with Vue Magazine in Red Bank. With them, I created advertisements for clients, shot photography for their events, and most notably designed my own editorial for Artaic, a pool company. I was given beautiful photos of tropical pools and was inspired to create something modern, but fun for readers of Vue Magazine. Seeing this work officially printed out is one of my biggest accomplishments in my graphic design career so far.

This project is like a caricature of my own personal style. I am so inspired by the media of the early 2000s, and in this cover I wanted to articulate that. Using edgy photography, creative typography, vivid color and alternating effects, I created an exciting magazine cover that I knew would succeed at drawing people in.

One of my favorite mediums of graphic design is all of the detail that goes into CD design. Not just album covers, but all of the intricacies of a CD. I have redone one of my favorite songs’ CD single; Ex Girlfriend by No Doubt. I did my best to keep the band’s integrity as well as my own personal style, and I am proud of the result.

This is a project I completed seen as a rebrand for a restaurant in my hometown I was sad to see close. I believe branding in every way can modernize a restaurant more than anything. Designed complely by myself, I have featured a social media concept, two double-sided menus, and packaging for takeout customers. I believe this is a great addition to my portfolio as it shows my eye for what is modern, while showcasing design skills very different than some of my other work.

Ruby Rios, a rising makeup artist in New York City, requested this logo. She desired a modern, playful, sleek, and nostalgic look all rolled into one. Although it presented a challenge, the logo has proven to be a successful asset to her career thus far. She requested different variants, and ended up choosing the first two commercially.

This is one of the most time-consuming challenging works I have created. I wanted to create a menu remodel for a restaurant, and I took the ultimate challenge by picking a sushi restaurant with an overwhelming abundance of items. I was inspired by the bright, fun colors of 90s Harajuku culture, a perfect match for a youthful, fun Japanese restaurant. I did my best to keep things bright and exciting, without compromising readability and functionality. I ended up pitching this design to Fuji 72, and while it was not the financial decision best for them at the time, it taught me how designing is not only about profit but growth.

For this design, I have created my own soft drink company as an example of my designs used in a very commercial sense. I saw this project as not only a design opportunity, but a marketing one. I created a drink completely from scratch, and designed it based off of my own imagination. Combining retro and modern styles, I created Beat.

For this project, I wanted to display my skill in Page Layout, attention to detail, and ability to reference already-existing design. This cover is a parody of 2000s tabloids such as Star Magazine, People, or Us Weekly. I had a little bit of fun getting fake paparazzi photos taken as if I was a celebrity, and I completely played with my imagination creating a fake cover for myself. I spent time researching popular fonts and color schemes used in tabloids, and I think this looks spot on to its influences.
