For this piece, I wanted to feature something that displayed my more creative, right brained, and artistic side. For one of my OCC classes, we were encouraged to make self portraits with a scribble pattern incorporated, and I absolutely went for it. This was at a time where I had worked on my own face for so long in the original portrait, and I had grown so sick of my own face. This messy, chaotic piece represents the beauty in the chaos, and I am so proud of it. It is a true outlier in my work, which is typically clean and concise.

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.

I created this project to show diversity in my portfolio. Obviously, I am no stranger to color or excitement in design. I wanted to create something classic, marketable to the masses, sleek and simple.

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.

Creating designs where art and music come together is my favorite part of being a graphic designer. I've had the opportunity to work with several emerging artists, each bringing their own unique ideas and challenges. In January 2025, Walter Miller gave me full creative control to design promotional materials for his upcoming album, University View. This project was incredibly inspiring, and I’m excited about the possibility of collaborating with him again. My first ventures into album design were for Nicholas Hollywood Tetreault and Brittany Crandol. Seeing my work on major streaming platforms was a surreal and unforgettable moment. That feeling continues to drive my passion as I take on new projects, with more album art releases on the horizon!

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.

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 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.

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.

This is a passion project I have created for my portfolio. I have always loved magazine ads for music, and I dream to work someday in the music world as a designer. In this project, I did my best at paying attention to detail, while mixing simplicity and fun by using gradients and black and white photography.
