I'm a Creative Director/Brand Consultant.
I believe that brands are meant to be experienced, and data and technology can make those experiences even better. Maybe even do some good along the way. I also believe black is a legit summer color.
Below are some selected works, but there's a little tabby tab up top-right if you want to see more

trying is believing
evaus :: suave
evaus is french for "suspiciously good hair care."
It's also "suave" backwards.
Suave had a perception problem. Market share was shifting to DTC brands that looked good but had no history of actually making your hair look good. So, to get millennials and the beauty-obsessed to look beyond the label, we took Suave undercover in a social experiment that pranked some of our biggest skeptics into trying Suave.

Suave Social Refresh
lather.rinse.repeat.
Despite being in 50% of American households, Suave is the most hated-on haircare brand on the Internet. So we helped them take a good look at their social presence (kind of like when your camera surprises you with selfie-mode), from quantitative social metrics to social listening. Then we made some visual assessments to make some visual hypotheses to test out some new "needle-moving" approaches to refresh the social and digital ecosystems.

1 STREET. 10 STORIES. 10 FRAGRANCES. #10CROSBYFILMS
Derek Lam 10 Crosby
10 Crosby St, soho NY
Inspired by moments seen on New York's beloved Crosby Street, fashion designer Derek Lam decided to take on the beauty scene with a collection of 10 fragrances and a film collaboration with Supermarche. To create awareness for both the film and fragrance collection, we proposed an immersive launch to let fragrance lovers experience the 10 Crosby collection multi-sensorially through AR and VR. All of which culminated with designing the digital strategy and creative ecosystem.
Cheat on your chocolate
Magnum NYC
#magnumnyc
We designed a physical place to cater specifically to the social space. As the lesser known of two products with the Magnum name in the US, we decided to give this popular European chocolate-covered ice cream bar an insta-worthy presence in the US by giving the people of New York a pleasure store to cheat on their chocolate in the most decadent no-chill chilled way, while giving you foodporn voyeurs some content to gawk at.

Asian-American Originals
Hyphens define us. Hyphens unite us.Hyphens make us original.
May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month. To celebrate, Panda Express wanted to look beyond stereotypical Asian-American success stories and put people they consider Asian-American Originals on a pedestal. The hyphen–a device often seen as a divider—became a bridge unifying the many facets of Asian-American Originals. Because each person is more than meets the eye, and extended hyphen statements show that these trailblazers can’t be reduced to a simple stereotype.
