Plan International - Give Differently
Plan International works in developing countries to end the cycle of poverty for children, developing solutions to ensure long-term sustainability. Their holiday "Give Differently" catalog offers opportunities to donate actual items needed by the communities where they work.
For the 2013 Holiday Gift Catalog, I illustrated the items that can be donated over photos from developing countries, showing both the need and the outcome.
CLIENT: Plan International USA
PROJECT: 2013 Holiday Catalog illustrations
"We had a fantastic experience using Alli as our illustrator for our Holiday Gifts of Hope campaign. Alli was reliable, flexible, and produced high-quality work that was far better than we had anticipated. Her personable nature made her a joy to work with. We’re looking forward to partnering with her again in future campaigns!"

Plan International - How Gifts of Hope Change Lives
Plan International approached me for some illustration work for their Holiday 2013 "Gifts of Hope" catalog, including this small insert booklet that shows how your donation impacts those in need.
The illustrations were hand-drawn and accented with texture and a limited color palette. To help communicate that Plan International's Gifts of Hope change lives, I started the illustrations with very minimal color and added more and more color as the family's lives continued to improve. I'm thankful for the opportunity to create work for organizations making a difference in the world; for more information visit Plan International's website.

RISE 15 Year Report
RISE is an organization that works with children of incarcerated parents in Rhode Island. To commemorate their first 15 years of impact and to set up for the following 15, RISE asked me to create a booklet style report filled with photos and infographics. Thanks to RISE for the opportunity to work together!
“Working with Alli was seamless. She is an intuitive listener, an organized communicator, and had a firmly yet gentle way of keeping us on task. She not only absorbed our vision and desire for the report, but she took it to another level. The balance of sensual imagery, direct quotes and easy to access data pictures sit well in the openess and space of a clean aesthetic - giving room to absorb it all. I think we produced a powerful tool that I am confident will have a positive impact on our ability to solicit support for our work.”

The Learning Garden logo
The Learning Garden is a home-like childcare center located in an old general store in a historic neighborhood of Warwick, RI. Children ages 6 weeks through 5 years grow and learn through play in a warm, nurturing environment. Featuring a large outdoor play area, The Learning Garden hopes to instill a love of nature in its students.
With these characteristics in mind, I created a logo that emphasizes learning, growth, and nature. Of the concepts I presented to Carla and Raquel, #3 was the winner. I'm so happy with how this illustrated logo turned out and wish The Learning Garden all the best!
“We knew how critical the logo for our daycare center would be in reflecting the look and feel of our brand to our customers but didn’t know where to begin. Working with Alli made us feel so much more confident. Alli made the process simple and designed an illustration that perfectly represented our center. She is professional, responsive, imaginative, easy to work with, and most importantly, has the market understanding to know how to translate our business’s brand into a logo that appeals to our customers.”
