WASHINGTONIAN MEDIA

The Washingtonian stands as the premier source of information for dining, shopping, entertainment, and personalities in the region. With Washingtonian.com attracting over a million unique readers monthly, its excellence is underscored by being a recipient of the prestigious National Magazine Award five times for its exceptional reporting and writing. 

Boasting a circulation exceeding 400,000, this newsstand magazine made waves! As the Art Director, I spearheaded the design of Washingtonian’s front-of-book, departments, and feature sections, collaborating closely with the Creative Director. Beyond our acclaimed city regional publication, I led the creative direction and design for special issues such as Washingtonian Weddings, Washingtonian Mom, and the Washingtonian Welcome Guide.

Our team crafted comprehensive service packages spotlighting diverse topics including politics, health, travel, food, the arts, cultural events, home, and style. I meticulously researched, sourced, and assigned illustrations, photographers, and typographers, while providing art direction and support during on-site photo shoots, offering insights on clothing and prop styling.

With a keen eye for detail, I orchestrated the assembly of all assets and meticulously crafted layouts tailored for both print and digital platforms, ensuring Washingtonian's content shone brightly in every format.
