Testimonials
“Tripp was awesome to work with. He was able to take complicated scientific concepts, get a working understanding of them quickly, and turn around an animation that helped us communicate those concepts to the public. All in just a couple of weeks!”
Henry P, Mobile Bay National Estuary Program
“Tripp was a tremendous asset to our project (a mobile mental health app). He helped us think through design choices, created a variety of options, and refined where we needed it. Best of all he was friendly, quick to respond, and worked with us to fit in our budget! His designs and color palette choices reinforced the calm, focused nature of our app. Much better than anything we or AI could've come up with!”
Matt K, Rocket Café
“Working with Tripp was fantastic! Our startup commissioned some graphical corporate headshots from him, and he was very careful to balance our personal preferences with realism, the professional image we wished to portray, and our company's branding. The results are beautiful and everyone is thrilled with them. We highly recommend Tripp's work and won't hesitate to hire him again in the future.”

“Tripp quickly created an excellent book cover design with the simple idea I provided. They communicated regularly and kept their deadlines with ease, making my publication process that much easier. Their illustrations and designs fit my book so splendidly that I'm excited to see what they'll do with my next cover.”
Lynn F, "You Are What You Eat"
“I have been working with Tripp for almost a decade and they are fantastic. Flexible, reliable, receptive, Tripp really cares about each project, delivers on time and will make sure you are a part of the creative process from start to finish. 100/10 recommend Tripp for your next commission.”
Takillya S, Camellia Bay Burlesque
“Tripp worked on my team at Visit Mobile (the city of Mobile’s official tourism marketing organization) for four and a half years as Manager of Graphic Design and made tremendous impact on every single piece of collateral, messaging, communications, advertising, signage and other creative that has been used to market historic and coastal Mobile, Alabama during that time.
When he first joined us, we were in the beginning process of developing a much needed new city tourism brand, which we launched after about a year and a half of working with organizations throughout the city. Tripp was responsible for transitioning all of our old, outdated and somewhat ineffective creative into the vibrant, colorful and exciting new brand. Because we market an entire city, Tripp has produced creative work for or collaborated with our airport, our cruise ship terminal, area hotels, attractions, museums, restaurants, downtown and arts organizations and special events. We almost consider ourselves an in-house creative agency for the city so Tripp has had experience working with dozens of different types of stakeholders during that time.
He is an extremely organized employee and has tremendous self-management skills. He meets or even beats deadlines regularly but can also be flexible if something new pops up unexpectedly. I have never felt the need to check in on him or look over his shoulder – he is extremely efficient, very creative and considerate of other team members’ needs. Tripp is also more than just a graphic designer, he is a valued and important member of the marketing and communications team and sits in with our group at the beginning of every concept, campaign discussion or planning that needs to take place to position Mobile as a top Gulf Coast destination.
I would hire Tripp over and over again if given the opportunity. Wherever he lands, I know he will make a huge impact and be a great asset to any organization.”
