JPL | Mission & Program Interior Design

Designed interior spaces for many Missions, Projects and Events within the lab at JPL. Worked with vendors to create signage, sculptures, set pieces and artwork. Most had very limited budgets for their spaces, so much were done w/ paint, signage and graphics printed on wallpaper w/ adhesive.
