Hack and Seek Certificate of Completion (print)
Lethbridge Polytechnic, Spatial Technologies Applied Research and Training (START): April 2025
Quest Objective
For the 2025 Hack and Seek hackathon, I designed a certificate of completion for 68 student participants, aligning with the event’s established branding developed by the Lethbridge Polytechnic design team in previous years.
Using Photoshop, I created a print-ready design with appropriate bleeds and carefully incorporated logos from all three hosting locations to ensure consistent and accurate representation. Once the layout was finalized, I imported the design into InDesign and used a CSV file to efficiently populate each student’s name.
This streamlined workflow allowed for the quick and accurate production of all certificates. The final files were exported as print-ready PDFs and sent off for signatures from all three locations and then to the printers.

The display utilized Ultra Leap camera technology, enabling users to interact with company logos through hand gestures, with a hand silhouette appearing on-screen to guide their movements.
In addition to shaping the user experience, I created the visual assets and animations that formed the core of the interface. This included designing a "move-around" and gesture legend that appeared at the top of the screen, guiding users through the interaction process.
My contributions ensured that the interface was not only functional but also visually engaging, following Platform Calgary’s style guide, providing an intuitive, hands-free experience for users to explore company details such as industry, employee count, and more.
