Field Notes x
After the Age of Dinosaurs

Led the creative partnership between the Field Museum and Field Notes to develop a limited-edition notebook celebrating After the Age of Dinosaurs and featuring original artwork by Jay Ryan. Managed the collaboration from concept through production, serving as the Museum's brand steward while partnering with the Field Notes creative team, exhibitions, retail, marketing, and executive stakeholders to guide creative development, cross-functional approvals, and production. The final product extended the exhibition experience beyond the Museum, creating a collectible retail item that celebrated the unique identities of both brands.
