ROOTS: AGENCY YEARS
A decade of designing for brands that move culture.
OVERVIEW Every designer has a foundation. Mine was built in the agencies of New York City, designing for some of the most recognized brands in the world. From live event social content for Jordan Brand to influencer experiences for Friskies and Diageo, from brand activations at SXSW to digital campaigns for Disney Vacation Club; I learned that great design isn't just beautiful. It's strategic, intentional, and built to travel.
