Sonic Lineage:Sampling History
About the Project
Sonic Lineage is an interactive physical computing installation that maps the history of music sampling to touch. Visitors approach a custom-built interface: felt pads wired to a MakeyMakey controller: and physically trigger audio samples spanning decades of recorded music.
Each pad is a node in a sonic family tree. Press one and you hear a sample. Press another and you hear what it became: how a drum break traveled from a 1969 soul record into hip-hop, into electronic music, into today. The piece makes visible what has always existed beneath the surface of popular sound.

J&JInnovations
Our Studio
J&J Innovations is a digital fabrication business I run with Jared Morris: we design and 3D print products, from precision gear mechanisms to event merch. Getting something to actually print the way you designed it is its own discipline, and I learned that fast.
The IMM logo went through way more iterations than I expected: small tweaks to wall thickness, infill, tolerances: until it actually looked the way it was supposed to look off the printer. And then there’s the poster: we accidentally printed “26′” with an apostrophe instead of “26”: which, depending on who you ask, is either a mistake or a feature at this point.
Running the studio while finishing senior year was a real test. Real orders, real deadlines, real physical product that has to be right before it ships.

Web Designer & Brand Kit
On top of my own project, I was the lead designer for the 2026 IMM Senior Show: building the full digital and print identity from scratch. The website, the posters, the flyers, the event branding, and every custom code inject on the site.
I started with wireframes in Canva, went through multiple color directions, and landed on a woodsy, nature-meets-brutalism aesthetic. Thirty-seven students across six tracks, all in one cohesive system.
I spent most of my senior year not knowing what my thesis was “supposed” to be. I can do graphic design and branding. I code websites (including the site you are reading this on). I even co-founded a small business. Picking one thing felt like restricting all of what I actually do.
What you’re looking at is a collection of the work that challenged me the most this year: three very different projects that each pushed a different side of what I’m capable of. Some of it was my thesis. Some of it was freelance. All of it is mine.
This multidisciplinary mindset is something I am carrying with me into my next chapter. This fall, I will be attending William Paterson University for their Master’s in Clinical and Counseling Psychology program. My goal is to eventually merge my technical and design background with clinical practice, using these creative tools to innovate wherever I go. This portfolio is not just a wrap-up of my
