Netflix: Entergalactic Movie Launch

Role: Creative Director

A launch campaign for Entergalactic that introduced a new “vibe board” format—using motion-driven aesthetic cues like fashion, sneakers, and street art to attract audiences beyond traditional plot-led promotion. As Creative Director, I developed the concept and led execution end-to-end, translating cultural signals into a distinct, scroll-stopping discovery experience.

Netflix: Heartbreak High Show Launch:

Role: Creative Director

A discovery-driven launch for Heartbreak High that introduced and tested a new VibeBoard format—using bold color, pattern, tone, and provocative visual cues to reflect the show’s energy. As Creative Director, I led the concept and execution end-to-end, combining dynamic motion and talent-driven assets to create a brand-new, distinctive and high-performing product experience.

From scrutinizing media, fierce competitors, or their own physical health, an athlete must endure, battle and overcome to be at the top of their game. In winter sports, the odds are even further stacked against them. 

But we wanted to show when there’s a will, there’s a way to tune out, find focus and rise above the noise. 

Utilizing light as a metaphor for the “noise,” rising steam as a symbol of their spirit and a track speaking to their fight ahead, we wanted to capture our athletes pushing the limits as each defies their own individual fear, doubt, injuries and elements. 

In the end, they rise in their biggest moments yet: high above the world and the noise in the quiet of their own inner peace.

Renting a car is always a secondary thought when traveling. 

So, we wanted to make Hertz top of mind by re-strategizing and rebranding it to be the company of choice for the millenial, entrepreneurial-minded professional. 

From there, we created The Goldmember: a social personality + rental program that caters to the goals, dreams, and budgets of like-minded, young businessmen and women. Through aspirational and detail-oriented social content, memes, blog posts and unique promos, we were able to inspire more millenial professionals to drive the part.

POP and the sticky song we wrote that launched a thousand Youtube comments.*

The intent with this campaign was to become the source of all things Fashion Week with the goal of user engagement, awareness and new user acquisition on all social media platforms. But ultimately, we wanted fashion fanatics across the globe to have the chance to be front row at their favorite designers’ shows without ever leaving their living rooms.

So, we created a microsite hub that housed live video streams from Facebook Live, Facebook 360 and Periscope, featuring on-site and timely street style fashion with a Curalate component, Instagram feed, Snapchat info, live Twitter feed and up-to-date fashion week NM Blog postings.

‘A Coffee With…’ cross channel activation was also created to boost user engagement and acquisition by having followers tweet in questions for their favorite designers to answer live on Facebook and Periscope. Creative was also used to drive from all platforms to the hub and promote live shows, collections and interviews.

As necessary as they are, people don't get too hot and bothered about buying/receiving home appliances as gifts around the holidays - even with Kenmore Elite's seriously cool new features (an alert that tells you when your beer is cold? I’m sold). So, how did we plan on getting people excited about the new line? 

1. Tap into the pure magic that is felt during the holidays, and explain the features from the perspective of a child.

2. Facilitate a deep passion of our target audience: the care and artistry that goes into making their house a home.

We also created the @kenmoreappliances social media brand by creating a new strategy, ideating a tone of voice and visual language and executing weekly social content – all with a little help from some good lighting and lots of crazy glue.

Role: Senior Writer / Ideated campaign concept, helped create overall social strategy and visual language, as well as wrote and executed scripts, social posts and tagline.

There's nothing worse than planning an outfit, securing a babysitter, and spending a fortune on an Uber only to find out your date wasn't exactly who they said they were.

Nobody likes a Catfish.

So, we created a dating app for like minded individuals who are serious about finding love, but also not wasting any time or energy along the way with misrepresented dating profiles.

Through unique features and profile guidelines, people can be assured that every person you match with is presented as genuinely as possible.
