49ers “Faithful to The Bay” Embroidered Gameday Graphics Series
This project was lead by Christine Zambetti, Graphic Design Manager. My role in this project was providing the base sketches and layout design for her to embroider on majority of the graphics, creating a true collaborative experience. Something very meaningful for me was that I was able to work with my girlfriend, Cameron Yee, on the graphic that honored Cancer Warriors. She was a cancer warrior herself and embroidered this poster while doing chemotherapy.

From more than 2,300 entries from 10 countries and regions around the world, I was a Merit Award winner for my design of a modular Dim Sum “Lazy Susan” table. My concept for this table starts with the Chinese character home, or “Jia,” then revolves from guests “Ke” to banquet “Yan” and finally to complete “Wan,” going full circle.
