HBO Max streaming service launched in May of 2020, but months later there were still millions of regular HBO subscribers who had no idea that they also had HBO Max. They just needed someone to tell them. So we had some HBO talent do just that.

Sandy Hook Promise was started by parents of the Sandy Hook Tragedy in Newtown. They believe that every act of gun violence is preventable when you know the signs of someone who might become a violent offender. They asked us to make PSA for them to raise awareness for the organization, encourage people to learn the signs and become advocates in their communities. This is the result of those efforts.

Every year, Foot Locker has a event called The Week of Greatness where all of their most exclusive sneakers drop. Since sneakerheads will do almost anything to get the shoes they want, we wondered what they would do if the Week of Greatness happened during the worst week in history…

These days sneaker culture is dominated by exclusive releases, limited brand collabs and signature shoes. 

So how do you get sneakerheads excited about a release that lacks all of those things? Well, we did it by finding something the brand can own that the audience actually cares about. 

ASICS is a Japanese sneaker manufacturer and anime has never been more popular in sneaker culture, so we created a five-part anime series that merged anime and sneaker culture, used the product to drive the narrative and employed voice talent relevant to sneakerheads and fans of streetwear.

1 in 8 Americans struggle with hunger, but the reason we don’t hear about it is because no one’s talking about it.

Feeding America wanted to create awareness about the reality of hunger in America.

Football is a team sport, and now, so is advertising. I was lucky enough to cut my teeth in advertising as a junior creative on Newcastle and help bring the social aspects of this campaign to life, specifically the Longest Super Bowl Teaser Ever which my partner and I led creative on.

We were given 48 hours to come up with a social activation featuring Giants ace Madison "MadBum" Bumgarner during the 2014 World Series. The result was MadBum undies, which garnered tons of views on social media and even more on people's butts.

Newcastle wanted a social activation to accomplish one thing; get more Twitter followers. They had 15k followers and they wanted 50k. Since most brands pay click farms to increase followers anyways, we figured we'd cut out the middleman and pay our new followers directly. Not only did we exceed our goal but we called bollocks on industry standards in the process.
