As Lead Designer for EY’s Southwest Entrepreneur of the Year gala, I shaped the full visual identity — from theme concept and stage design to invitations, trophies, coasters and 10-ft environmental graphics. Directing a remote team of five, I managed 25+ deliverables, enforced brand precision, and delivered assets for the black-tie event $25K under budget while earning multiple internal design excellence awards. High-stakes, high-visibility creative leadership — on time, on brand, and unforgettable.
