Adobe InDesign Projects

My Adobe InDesign projects demonstrate my ability to design structured, visually compelling, and professionally polished layout compositions. Using InDesign, I create print-ready and digital publications that combine strong typographic principles, effective visual hierarchy, and precise attention to detail. Below is an overview of the types of projects included in this portfolio and the skills applied throughout each piece.

Publication Layout & Print Design

These projects include brochures, multi-page documents, and event programs.

Skills Utilized:

Page layout composition and multi-page document setup
Master pages, grids, and baseline alignment for consistent structure
Advanced typography using styles, kerning, leading, and type pairing
Integration of vector and raster graphics
Color swatches, brand palettes, and print color management
Exporting print-ready PDF files with bleeds, crops, and press settings

The projects above were created using images that I professionally retouched and color-corrected in Photoshop. Each layout was designed with proper page imposition, ensuring that all pages align correctly when printed, folded, and assembled into booklet form. This includes organizing the spreads so that the front, back, and interior pages appear in the correct sequence after trimming and binding.

Marketing & Promotional Materials

These include flyers, posters, banners, postcards, and branded communication pieces.

Skills Utilized:

Clean visual hierarchy and marketing-driven layout
Integration of brand identity elements
Creative use of typography and layout flow
Preparing artwork for both digital and print
Composing layouts for different formats

Each layout was designed with clean visual hierarchy, consistent branding, and print-ready formatting to ensure high-quality output across different sizes and mediums.

Instructional & Academic Design Artifacts

These projects highlight materials created for educational environments, including course handouts, instructional booklets, and digital learning assets.

Skills Utilized:

Structuring content for readability and instructional flow
Designing templates and reusable layout systems
Organizing complex information into simplified visual formats
Exporting interactive PDFs when required

Drink

The projects above showcase a collection of Instructional and Academic Design artifacts, including syllabi, infographics, course modules, lesson plans, learning guides, assessment sheets, instructional handouts, slide decks, and other related academic materials. Each piece was intentionally structured to clearly convey relevant academic information, using accessible layouts, strong instructional hierarchy, and consistent visual branding to support effective learning and engagement.

Student Work from Visual Communications Courses

As a former instructor of Visual Communications at City Colleges of Chicago – Kennedy-King College, I have also included selected student pieces. These works showcase the design foundations I taught using Adobe InDesign, such as:

Layout and composition
Typography fundamentals
Publication design
Grid and alignment systems
Creative visual communication

These samples highlight my ability to teach industry-standard layout techniques and guide students in producing professional-quality work.
