Absolutely one of my favorite projects so far is the annual Purple Shirt Campaign. We gave away 1,600 free shirts to local businesses to promote Leatherneck Pride in our community. It involved a lot of emails, talking to businesses, gathering sizes, ordering/pricing through vendors, designing, and finally distributing them once they all came. It's very awesome to see so many shirts out in the community and knowing it was a fun throwback 90's design made it even sweeter.
All designs are intellectual property of Western Illinois University and were created by me while working for WIU.
Designs we didn't end up using...

Fun fact - I do my own stunts, aka photoshoots as Rocky the Mascot,
but shhh don't tell anyone ;)
