I was brought into Walton Isaacson to help launch Suave's Moroccan Infusion. The concept of The Shine Suite was to create a virtual suite that celebrated everything about shine, with the goal to reach key influencers and bloggers. I managed all creative direction, UX, influencer selections, content development and platform integration experiences on the project. Soon after the site launched, Moroccan Infusion became the #1 shampoo and conditioner, beating Pantene for the first time ever. Unilever was over the moon.

At Saatchi, part of the team that launched Total Effects with "The 7 Signs of Aging." The goal was to really elevate the tone, design and messaging of the brand, to talk to women who would normally buy skincare products through department stores or dermatologists. It's still Olay's most successful moisturizer.

At Grey New York, we were called on to change the perception of this brand from something you drink when you're getting sick to something you should drink every day. Not easy, considering the name "Emergen-C." But we came up with a whole new look and tagline, relaunching the brand to a healthy, active target as an everyday supplement. Soon after, the drinking season was twice as long and sales doubled.
I helped launch P&G's global haircare line. At the global creative meeting, only Thailand loved these. I love Thailand.

Olay has a strong heritage in facial skincare. So when they decided to enter the market as the 24th body lotion on the shelf, we tapped into that heritage and modernized it. We told women, this is your chance to use the proven benefits of Olay on your whole body. I worked on everything from naming and packaging design to print ads and TV to launch the brand in its first two years -- at which point, it rocketed to the top of its category.

While I was freelancing for the Martin Agency, I was called in to help promote the most expensive home product line in Walmart. Canopy needed to become Walmart's luxury brand, but we still had to drive home price. The solution was to make the look beautiful, simple, and very real.

This was Olay's very first social media campaign, and wow, did it work. My partner and I at Saatchi came up with the idea to "declare your mom your beauty by example." The top ten entries would get a trip to NYC, where they'd be treated to a beauty shoot. We got 65,000 entries. Facebook fans went from 80,000 to 1.3 million in three months. The contest generated amazing video and social content, and print ads helped spread the word. We even got some help from Carrie Underwood, who talked about her mom being her role model.

With this campaign, we didn't sell people $9 sneakers, eyeglasses or sneakers. We sold them stories. I worked on this as a freelancer with The Martin Agency. Greg Kohs directed.
Saatchi's 16th floor lobby has one of the most amazing views of NYC. Somebody decided to put a much-needed conference room in that space. But on one side of the lobby, there was a strange curved wall. The head of art production, Anne Suite and I came up with an idea: let's turn that design oddity into a mini-gallery. The gallery featured the personal artwork of commercial artists. Gallery openings were packed and new relationships were built between talent and staff. And new ideas emerged for clients as requests for work inspired by the personal work of the showcased artists rolled in.
