Hi, I'm Eli.

I am currently employed by Fanatics as a Nike Headwear Designer (1/23 – current), working predominantly on licensed product for Nike College.

I design the seasonal assortments for college headwear (Holiday ’25, Spring ’26, and Summer ’26 — both Sideline and Campus) as well as handle the majority of custom design requests from individual schools. I’m also responsible for designing the 2024-25 College Football Playoffs On-Field hats. In addition to college, I have also done work on NFL and MLB Nike product.

In May of 2022, I graduated from the University of Kentucky’s School of Arts and Visual Studies. In college, I specialized in branding and logo design. I also have experience in digital illustration, animation, photography, and 3-D modeling. I focus on simplicity, and try to be as minimalistic as possible—less is almost always more. I’m an avid sports fan, and what I enjoy most about what I do is combining my passions for sports and design.

I hope you enjoy my portfolio!
