Hi! ︎ My name is Etienne. I’m a French-American New Orleans native, and a recent graduate of Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) with a BFA in Graphic Design.
In my ︎ personal work, through writing, photography, illustration, and design, I enjoy exploring alternative methods of communicating the significance of our everyday lives.

FIAF’s Bastille Day Celebration
Festival identity and artistic direction for FIAF’s Bastille Day Celebration on Madison Avenue, NYC
Street banners, directional signage, web & digital assets
Jul 2022
This year’s festival gathered 25,000+ people on Madison Ave. Assets included two giant street banners, 30+ kakemono signs displaying the program and directional signage, installed throughout the building and in the street, banners for the main stage, and tickets for wine & champagne tasting events. I was responsible for creating and adapting the identity to each format (print & digital), prepping files for production, placing the orders for external printing, keeping track of invoices, and making sure everything arrived on time.
