The National Geographic Photography Seminar, held at the iconic National Geographic Society headquarters in Washington, DC, brought together some of the world’s most visionary photographers.
When unforeseen marketing staff constraints arose, Nat Geo turned to me to provide external production design support, ensuring that the event’s creative and logistical execution reflected its unparalleled prestige.
PODIUM BRANDING
Rising to the Challenge
As the seminar approached, internal resources were stretched thin, placing the event’s high standards at risk. National Geographic needed a swift, reliable solution to maintain the integrity of its brand while delivering a seamless and inspiring experience for attendees. Demonstrating adaptability and a dedication to understanding the team's mindset and process, I successfully stepped in to finalize several projects and fully develop others, delivering results with the highest level of efficiency.

Immersive Design Strategy
From the outset, I immersed myself in National Geographic’s storied legacy and the seminar’s specific goals. During an initial in-person meeting, I worked closely with their Creative Director and Art Director to align on vision, brand guidelines, and event objectives. Operating remotely for the remainder of the project, I maintained consistent communication and a flexible approach, ensuring that every design element met their exacting standards and upheld their commitment to impactful, on-brand storytelling.
