For over two decades, I’ve been honored to design shirts for the JFK Rotary Club’s JFK Runway Run – a popular tradition dating back to the 1970s. This annual fundraiser brings together community spirit, a passion for aviation, and support for charitable causes, and it’s always a pleasure to contribute to such a prestigious event

A few months before the time of this post, the club’s president approached me with an exciting request: redesigning the race’s aging logo for a fresh, modern look. After tossing some ideas around, we developed this dynamic design:

Left: New Logo | Right: Old Logo

The updated logo embodies the client’s vision, featuring a bold, modern aesthetic. Key elements include the airplane motif and its signature “swoosh,” which symbolizes the Rotary Club’s relationship with the aviation community and the dynamic spirit of the race. 

The new logo captures everything the client envisioned – featuring a bold presence and, most importantly, incorporating the airplane and its “swoosh” to symbolize the Rotary Club’s deep involvement in the aviation community.

Below are some of my past works along with photographs of the race participants wearing the event shirts. It’s always an overwhelming source of pride and joy to see my designs being worn by thousands of people each year!

Update as of January 15, 2025:

I’m thrilled to announce that I now provide direct shirt printing services! Do you need shirts for small events, promotions, or sample prototypes? I can help bring your ideas to life.

Here’s what I can do:

• Small batch orders (up to a dozen or so shirts).
• Sample or demonstration shirts for approvals or promotions.
• Prototype designs for creative projects.

While I can’t handle high-volume production (e.g., 100+ shirts), I take pride in delivering high-quality, custom-made designs tailored for smaller-scale needs.

Let’s create something a-meow-zing! Feel free to reach out to me for custom shirt designs, direct printing services, or any other creative projects.
