Gold
Honoured to receive another gold Graphis award for my work “Portrait of Vladimir Putin”. The award was part of an international juried design competition that showcased the best of global protest art from the past decade. Oblada Creative was one of three Canadian design studios to win gold.
The work will also be featured in the upcoming publication Protest Posters 2.

RGD Award of Distinction
Honoured to be the recipient of an Award of Distinction at the RGD (Association of Registered Graphic Designers’) In-House Design Awards. “miyo wahkohtowin”, the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Indigenous Student Success Strategy, was one of sixteen recipients of the international design award. It is one of the most beautiful pieces in my design portfolio and was the first project I worked on in which I incorporated glow-in-the-dark ink, bringing the dreamcatcher on its cover to life.
The award will be presented at the upcoming DesignThinkers Conference. It will also be showcased at an exhibit in Toronto.
