About ME

Creativity has always flowed through my veins; from the electric guitar I got for my 8th birthday to begging my parents for an adobe subscription to make the best youtube videos in middle school, my creativity has always needed an outlet. 


I learned to channel my creativity into digital design when I got into the advertising design program at the Advanced Technology Center during my junior year of high school. This program gave me technical skills along with dozens of creative techniques. I continued developing my passion into a craft at Virginia Commonwealth University With a degree in creative Advertising.


Advertising needs to be an experience. It’s not good enough to state what you are selling and why. Involving the audience into the conversation creates a genuine connection between a person in the brand. It’s all about the people. How can you benefit them?

CLIENT: SKINNY POP


THE CLIENT WAS LOOKING FOR A COMMERCIAL SPOT IN ADDITION TO A COHESIVE OUTDOOR CAMPAIGN. OUR RESEARCH LED US TO FIND THE USP THAT SKINNY POP IS LIGHTER THAN OTHER BRANDS AND IT MAKES YOU EAT MORE OF IT! "EATING MORE HAS NEVER FELT SO LIGHT" FOCUSES ON HOW THE POPCORN MAKES YOU FEEL WHEN YOU EAT IT.


OUR OUTDOOR CAMPAIGN WAS AN EXPERIENTIAL CONCEPT WITH DIFFERENT THINGS THAT AREN'T NORMALLY LIGHT (BENCH PRESS, HOT AIR BALLOON, JUMPING PILLOW) WHICH WE TIED INTO THE AD WHICH FEATURES (ME) FLYING OFF A SWING SET INTO THE SKY BECAUSE SKINNY POP IS SO LIGHT.

CLIENT: TEA-DO


NO ONE KNOWS TEADO. IT’S A “HIDDEN GEM” IN OTHER WORDS. BUT AFTER 13 YEARS, HIDDEN GEM JUST DOESN'T CUT IT. SOME REVIEWS SAY THEY FOUND TEADO WHILE APARTMENT HUNTING AND REALIZED HOW GOOD ITS DRINKS ARE. WE WANT TEADO VISITS TO BE THOUGHTFUL INTENTS, NOT SURPRISING ACCIDENTS. 


THE “HELLO, MY NAME IS:TEADO” CAMPAIGN WOULD START OFF BY UPDATING TEADO’S RELATIVELY OUTDATED BRANDING AND WEBSITE THEN WOULD CONTINUE BY ORGANIZING SOCIAL ACTIVITIES AND MEETINGS TO INTRODUCE COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO ARE NEW TO THE AREA OR SIMPLY MEETING NEW PEOPLE TO EACH OTHER.

CLIENT: AQUAPHOR


PEOPLE DON’T THINK ABOUT LIP CARE UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE. THEY THINK OF THEIR LIPS AS SOMETHING AESTHETIC ON THEIR FACE INSTEAD OF AN ESSENTIAL BODY PART.


YOUR LIPS ARE MORE ESSENTIAL THAN YOU THINK. "LIPS AREN’T JUST FOR LOOKS, THEY’RE FOR LIFE" IS A CAMPAIGN FOCUSED ON HOW WE TREAT OUR LIPS AND WHY WE IGNORE THEM UNTIL IT'S TOO LATE.

THE “HELLO, MY NAME IS:TEADO” CAMPAIGN WOULD START OFF BY UPDATING TEADO’S RELATIVELY OUTDATED BRANDING AND WEBSITE(S). BECAUSE TEADO IS LOCATED MOSTLY ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES, THE CAMPAIGN WOULD CONTINUE BY ORGANIZING SOCIAL ACTIVITIES AND MEETINGS TO INTRODUCE COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO ARE NEW TO THE AREA OR SIMPLY MEETING NEW PEOPLE TO EACH OTHER. LASTLY, THE CAMPAIGN WOULD ALSO GIVE PEOPLE THE OPPORTUNITY TO “MEET” THE OWNER SHIN POON, WHO IS USUALLY HIDDEN.

CLIENT: FROSTY PAWS


FOR THIS CAMPAIGN WE HAD TWO MAIN INSPIRATIONS: A DOG BEING A PERSON'S BEST FRIEND, AND THE INFAMOUS DOGS PLAYING POKER PAINTING. WE CAME UP WITH "WHY SHOULD HUMANS HAVE ALL THE FUN?" PLAYING WITH THE CONCEPT OF DOGS DOING HUMAN ACTIVITIES.


WE ALSO DECIDED TO EXPERIMENT WITH AI TO HELP US WITH NAIL THE ART STYLE WE WANTED TO ACHIEVE. WE USE GOOGLES IMAGE GENERATION, WHISK, TO GENERATE THE CHARACTERS AND SCENE OF THE AD.
