VIZIO hadn't done a brand campaign for a decade. So we had to do something that felt unlike any other TV brand. With a plethora of built-in apps and features, VIZIO can change the way you see the world. Even if you're a raccoon imagining what your life would be like if you owned one.

One of Lowes Foods' most useful services is the Pick and Prep counter. Just pick out your produce and they'll prepare it any way you like while you shop. We dedicated the summer of 2020 to celebrating the wonder of on-demand produce prepping with Choptober, a six week festival of chopping.
On TV, a lawyer-like spokesperson encouraged people to avoid the dangers of the kitchen and use Pick & Prep instead.

At the LYNC 2014 Conference, attendees celebrated the modern convenience of communication & collaboration that is LYNC by smashing all the old business "tools" they no longer needed.

The experience was awarded Microsoft's top internal and worldwide award for the best social program of 2014 and a Silver Addy.

How do you get people excited for a museum changing its name (for the fifth time in 16 years), without revealing what the new name is (Museum of Pop Culture), and without being able to use pop culture icons/logos/fonts/images/names (licensing costs). Phew!

With a small budget, KEEN footwear asked to launch their new shoe "UNEEK". The weirdness of shoes name could have been seen as a weakness, but we saw it as its greatest strength. So we doubled down on it with the campaign “Unique UNEEK.”
All in all, the best shoe launch in KEEN history.

Dragon Days takes viewers back to a simpler time when dragons and humans co-existed peacefully… and then burns it all to the ground. The tongue-in-cheek spot seamlessly contrasts the cheesy, 2-D morning cartoon style of the ‘80’s and ‘90s with modern War Dragons’ rich 3D graphics. Renowned SNL/TV Fun House animator, J.J. Sedelmaier, was chosen as the project’s creative director due to his sharp sense of humor and visionary comedic work.

The Presidents of the United States of America (the band) approached me to design and create the album art for their sixth and final studio album. My 10 year old 'Peaches' loving self thought it was certainly surreal to work on.
DOPL is a review app a lot like Yelp except it tailors its reviews to your preferences. So if you were a cat looking for other cats you wouldn't want to run into a bunch of dogs.
Ultimately, we wanted people to remember DOPL in a fun and bizarre way.
Here are a few posters that I've been asked to design for bands over the years.
