MIY/YIM – ©2023

Agency: Harley & Co.

A continuation of the groundbreaking national HIV prevention campaign that debuted in 2022, Season 02 of the Me In You, You In Me campaign pushed the creative boundaries of its first iteration. A new cast of local and national talent, as well as targeted press engagement, extended the social reach of the campaign by nearly 50%, and engagement with the campaign on social media by over 25%.

In the community, the campaign saw more than 9,000 attendees at its local events across four cities, deeply engaging with some of the last remaining safe spaces for LGBTQIA+ people in the South.

Pieces of Us

Design / Art Direction

A limited edition book that peers into the hidden details tightly woven throughout Jordan Peele’s Us. The book showcases significant objects, their deep meanings and how they build the intensely metaphorical story piece by piece. 3000 books were printed and distributed to members of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Positive Action for Youth ©2023

Agency: Harley & Co.

We brought together six community youth activists from across the country for a photoshoot that reimagined what representation looks like for young people and how they want to be seen – on their own terms. The result was a powerful image library for ViiV Healthcare's Positive Action for Youth Program, working to help end the HIV epidemic among youth and fueling the next generation of leaders.

Agency: Harley & Co.

We brought together six community youth activists from across the country for a photoshoot that reimagined what representation looks like for young people and how they want to be seen – on their own terms. The result was a powerful image library for ViiV Healthcare's Positive Action for Youth Program, working to help end the HIV epidemic among youth and fueling the next generation of leaders.

Additionally, for one night only, we created an immersive pop-up pleasure and intimacy experience designed to transform conversations around desire, intimacy and pleasure. Attended by a powerful group of women, hand selected for their cultural influence and ability to drive change, The S Salon drove top-tier press coverage, unprecedented organic social sharing, and helped launch a new series of activity books that we created in partnership with women and experts from across the country.

American Promise

Agency: Harley & Co.

New branding, visual language, and messaging strategy designed to leverage the best in consumer brand marketing in the context of creating political change – all through a new dialogue that connects both the left and the right. Inspired by a long, effective history of propaganda, this branding was developed to grow the American Promise community, communicate and educate them on the issue, and change the dialogue.

MIY/YIM – ©2022

Agency: Harley & Co.

A first-of-its-kind national HIV prevention campaign, featuring a cast of 6 national and 12 local talent. Through top-tier press, a non-traditional paid campaign, and a wide network of social distribution channels. There was also a powerful on-the-ground movement that launched simultaneously in four cities with over 20 community partners that executed more than 90+ activations.

Nickelodeon® HQ

Art Direction / Design / Experiential Design

For over four years we undertook the challenge of revitalizing Nickelodeon’s 20,000 sq. ft. campus in Burbank, California. The interior design, architecture and playful artwork were created with the intention of reinvigorating their current talent, give them spaces to feel inspired by the brand, its IPs. Now, the campus oozes the brand’s DNA and is drawing in a new age of illustrators and creators. Produced by Struck™

Walt Disney Animation Lobby

Design / Art Direction / Renderings

We gave the main lobby of the animation studio a facelift by adding texture, depth, color and a story. We reintroduced the primary studio logo in a way that intrigued visitors and staff. We also curated pulls from each of the animated films from 1932 to present which collectively tell the stories of color, creative process and the studio’s legacy. These pieces are the first of multiple installations planned for the space. Produced by Struck™

Nickelodeon® | Happy Happy Joy Joy

Design / Art Direction / Curation / Experiential Design

We designed a celebratory space for the past 25 years of Nickelodeon animation through an immersive experience that focused on original creators and their art. We developed a system of immersive moments that both recreated the emotional world of Nickelodeon’s original animated properties and housed original pieces of art and illustrated concepts. Over several weeks fans were able to tour the gallery space at CalState Fullerton.

The space included over 300 pieces of original art, an over-scaled, easter egg-filled living room designed to take make you feel like a kid again, an abstract block sculpture made up of 510 boxes that represented beloved characters, a kinetic machine, and many other pieces that brought the history of Nickelodeon to back to life. Produced by Struck™

Fisher-Price®

Design / Art Direction / Renderings / Experiential Design

We brought Fisher-Price’s DNA to life using brand-centric forms, playful scale and timeless playthings through a highly graphic language, toy-like textures and unique-to-brand displays. This space is currently used to showcase FP’s latest products to potential vendors at Mattel HQ. Only renders are shown to avoid infringement of new product rollouts. Produced by Struck™

Goal Zero™ | Choose Power

Design / Art Direction / Concept


This campaign spot for Goal Zero’s Yeti Power Stations shifted focus from a variety of user scenarios to the product itself while creating an emotional pull around the dependence of electrical power. Keeping the product “ever-present”, we slowly revealed that it was the product itself that was powering these scenes and was giving its users the ability to work, play and live after the power went out.

MOMA Therapeutics™

Creative Direction / Design

We developed a brand and website that represents the science behind MOMA Therapeutics; a biotech company that focuses on the power of molecular machines.

By introducing symbolic forms of time, mechanical gears, motion and an element of disruption we embodied, not only MOMA’s collective scientific approach, but their control of molecular machines through manipulation of rDNA.

The Utah Symphony

Art Direction / Design

There was a need for the world renowned Utah Symphony to speak to new, younger audiences and raise awareness that this symphony is, in fact, composed of award winning, world-class musicians.

By blending the worlds of contemporary music icons and classical instrumentalists, we introduced the unique opportunity to witness performances of historical works performed by rock star musicians within the symphony world.

Monterey, California

Art Direction / Design

T
he county of Monterey, California needed brand design and a campaign that re-introduced the dynamic nature of the county, its cities and their unique offerings. We developed key messages that spoke to potential visitors about Monterey’s expansive, transformative, other-worldly nature. This reminded visitors that within the county of Monterey lies gems such as Big Sur, Carmel-By-The-Sea and Pebble Beach. By showcasing the county’s versatility we ensured returning visitors that they will never experience the same trip twice. Produced by Struck™

The Utah Opera

Art Direction / Design

The UO desired to reach out to new, modern audiences that tend to see the opera as inaccessible, stuffy and antiquated. We reached them without alienating opera buffs by showcasing classic opera titles in a larger than life style. Using colloquial language, stylized coloring and contemporary typography we bridged the worlds of the historical art form and pop culture. We played up the drama. Produced by Struck™

VIVINT™ HOME COURT

THE ASK — create a casual gathering space inside the Vivint Smart Home Arena that both celebrates the history of the Utah Jazz through the lens of Vivint Smart Home

THE SOLUTION — we brought modern homestyle finishes, materials, lighting, a cookie bar, an enhanced wifi zone and video gaming into one small gathering space. We dedicated an entire wall to a Jazz-Legacy-Scoreboard using blackened steel and LED lighting that married a clean, intentional aesthetic to a rather casual space. Ultimately, it reenforced the Vivint brand while honoring the home and history of the Jazz.

MAZE THERAPEUTICS™

THE ASK — create a brand for Maze Therapeutics; a brand that harnesses the power of human genetics, functional genomics and data science to advance the understanding of how to more effectively treat patients with severe, rare and common diseases.

THE SOLUTION — an extremely bold, confident, structured logotype paired with human-focused photography. The logotype itself symbolizes the actual puzzle, or maze, of trying to solve vastly complex problems. Although the task is daunting the mark paired with photography is meant to stabilize and confidently state that Maze is here, as a collective, to solve these problems for their patients.

US - AWARDS CAMPAIGN

Look established for Jordan Peele’s 2019 Universal Pictures film Us.

Design / Art Direction: Mike De Haan

YAKIMA™

We developed a tagline that reenforces the personality of the brand and the easy-to-use nature of their products. The idea of an additional logomark was explored but ultimately killed per my recommendation that the equity of the Yakima logotype is too valuable to make secondary within a system.

An icon system was established as a shorthand for product categories within their site and catalogs.

A typography system was also devised to keep the built-strong, functional, friendly nature of the brand coherent and cohesive.
