The NCMPR Conference was two weeks ago, and CNM and I were able to take home two Paragon Awards from our work we completed in 2022. Our web team won silver 🥈 for our the large CNM website redesign and our design team won bronze 🥉 for the Deep Dive Bootcamp T-Shirt Design. It was an honor to have illustrated this piece and have it be recognized on the national stage competing against so many other talented marketing and communications teams representing many other two-year community and technical colleges from across the U.S.A. 🇺🇸

The National Council for Marketing & Public Relations (NCMPR), is the leading professional development association exclusively serving those working in communication at two-year community and technical colleges. It's the organization two-year college communicators turn to, first and foremost. (credits - NCMPR website copywriting)

I am extremely thankful for all the design opportunities I have been afforded to take on while working for the Marketing & Communications Office (MCO) at Central New Mexico Community College @cnmsuncats 🦁! Our design team has continued to crush it over and over again. I am so proud of our hardwork and the services we have been able to provide to our clients, community and beyond.
----------
Last week, our Marketing & Communications Office took home three Silver ADDY Awards @aafnewmexico 🏆💯🔥👏😎💪🙏🤝🏽.

🥈 Deep Dive T-Shirt Design: Sales & Marketing

🥈 CNM Humanities Bus Wrap: Out-of-Home & Ambient Media

🥈 One College, Infinite Possibilities: Film, Video & Sound
----------
On a personal note, this is truly inspiring for me to see how far I have come from years of hardwork and honing my craft. I am proud of all these pieces that I have designed from illustrating the deep dive t-shirt, laying out the beautiful humanities artwork, and handlettering our official enrollment campaign graphic. I am over the moon to see my work competing with the best here in New Mexico, but more importantly align with the CNM brand and mission of Changing Lives, Building Community. I am truly blessed and honored to be in this industry and I hope and pray for a long lifetime ahead of creativity and joy.

Cheers,

-Luke

NEW JOB ALERT 🚨

Exciting! I have officially been hired to work at Bridgewater State University @bridgestateu in the Enrollment, Marketing and Communications division (EMComm) as the Digital Designer.

I start my new role on Monday, 12/8/2025.

In higher education, I have found opportunities to break the mold of sterile design with more imagination involved. My approaches provide engaging bespoke visuals for campaigns, events, initiatives, and program advertising. I enjoy bringing ownership to brand story telling through custom-made solutions.

I am thrilled to embark on this new journey where I will explore all the possibilities at my new creative home, BSU.

Every Day is a Great Day to be a Bear! 🐻❤️🤍🖤

ORIGINALLY, Em and I were supposed to be in Dallas this weekend going to @meowwolfgrapevine and also meeting up with @maguarte.ds and @michaelamade.it ... buttttt American Airlines canceled our flight on Friday afternoon as soon as we had arrived at the airport✈️ 😒 🙄 😢.

We took the chance today, though, to FINALLY explore @elmalpaisnps after @holidayevan had recommended it from his travels! Thanks, Ev 😊.

We saw an ice cave 🧊, an old volcano 🌋, and even mined for our next fortune 🤣. There is still a lot to explore there, so we'll definitely be making another trip.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

ORIGINALLY, Em and I were supposed to be in Dallas this weekend going to @meowwolfgrapevine and also meeting up with @maguarte.ds and @michaelamade.it ... buttttt American Airlines canceled our flight on Friday afternoon as soon as we had arrived at the airport✈️ 😒 🙄 😢.

We took the chance today, though, to FINALLY explore @elmalpaisnps after @holidayevan had recommended it from his travels! Thanks, Ev 😊.

We saw an ice cave 🧊, an old volcano 🌋, and even mined for our next fortune 🤣. There is still a lot to explore there, so we'll definitely be making another trip.

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

✨️Crop 2024 Highlights✨️:

It's been just over a week now since having an awesome time @cropcons 2024! Man, there were so many highlights. There are a few in this video, but they definitely only provide a taste of what was in store for this year.

I finally got to see friends in person who I met two years ago at Crop Con 2022. @goodtype and @brethrendesignco both hosted amazing workshops this year, and I met so many new and awesome people that I am excited to stay in touch with and support!

The cherry on top just for my own individual experience was being selected for the opportunity to participate in the lettering challenge. Honestly, I feel that was a game-changing moment for me and my career. Thank you, Matt Dawson, for this opportunity 🙏.

In conclusion, I'm excited for all the opportunities ahead for the rest of 2024 and into 2025!

Cheers 🍻!

While at @cropcons, I attended the Build-a-Beer workshop hosted by @brethrendesignco . These two brothers shared their expertise and showed their process in creating some of the best beer labels ever seen. 💪🍻👏

--

This Bat City beer label was based on one of the prompts from the workshop.

Label Artwork Approach:
- Bat
- Fog or Smog
- Congress Bridge or Bat Bridge
- River running below the bridge
- City of Austin backdrop

Overall, the illustration takes on a mural type aesthetic that vibes with the beautiful mural artwork seen around the city.

I'm so stoked to have met you boys, @jordandudeman @jcoondesigns ! 🍻

1 week ago, I took the @goodtype art licensing workshop @cropcons in Austin, Texas.

There was so much knowledge shared and it was so fun! Here is my greeting card I created and finished based on one of the prompts from the workshop. Thank you to both Goodtype and Crop Con for this memorable experience.

Cheers! 🍻

p.s. the Western Wire brush set came in handy on this one. Thank you, @awfullygreatco 🤜🤛!

I am excited to share my entry to the annual @nmwilderness Wolf Stamp Contest from March of this year. Though my work wasn't selected as a winner, I definitely still had a fun time illustrating this piece with a good cause in mind.

Congratulations to the winners of this year's competition! 🐺👏
