Hi, I'm Eli.
I am a Nike Headwear Designer at Fanatics (2023 – current) working predominantly on licensed product for Nike College. I also help out with MLB and NFL fanwear.
I concept, design, and develop the seasonal assortments for college headwear (both Sideline and fanwear) as well as custom design requests for individual schools and retail partners. I also designed the Official Locker Room headwear for the 2025 College Football Playoff (National Champs hat shown above!)
I graduated from the University of Kentucky’s School of Arts and Visual Studies in 2022 with a major in Digital Media & Design. I have experience in brand development, apparel/headwear creation, animation, photography, and 3-D modeling, among other things.
I hope you enjoy my portfolio!
