As a season ticket holder for Detroit City Football Club, I have gotten involved with the Northern Guard Supporters over the past few years.
My favorite NGS initiative is the Prideraiser campaign and partnership with the Ruth Ellis Center. I look forward to contributing to the Pride tifo and merch each year.
As part of The Footy Museum project, starting in June 2026, pieces of my tifo designs will be featured at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History, coinciding with the World Cup games in Dallas. Stay tuned!
Below are tifo and merch projects I’ve worked on for NGS for the past few seasons.
2024 Season
I was asked to design the Pride tifo for a nationally broadcast match. This quote "Let Everyone Know" is from Ruth Ellis, a call to LQBTQIA+ folks as well as our allies to be loud and proud.
2025 Season
This tifo is near and dear to me. Inspired by David Lynch's character on Twin Peaks, "Fix your hearts or die" is an invitation for self reflection and the opening of hearts, or risk suffering the agony and corrosion of holding onto hate. Specifically, Lynch's character says this line in defense of a trans FBI agent against her bigoted colleagues. This tifo incorporates yellow roses, symbols of friendship and community, as well as the colors of the trans flag.
Other notable projects: 2025 Women's Home Opener tifo and corresponding merch, various stickers and clothing designs.
