What's your story?

Mine involves a mountain lion and single malt whisky, although not at the same time. Never underestimate a soccer (hooligan) mom with a penchant for X-Files reruns and creative solutions.

Vari

The Ask: Vari asked for a bold, edgy, two part direct mail campaign for B2B.


What I Did: Created the "Cut The Crap" campaign. The first mail piece was a finger trap. The second part was a branded pair of scissors. Both pieces direct targets to a website with social proof and statistics regarding Vari's products and services.


UserTesting landing page.

UserTesting

The Challenge: The client wanted a campaign that focused on their ability to provide human insights for UX and design teams by allowing them to conduct field research, evaluative the results, and get quick insights from real users. 


What I Did: Developed the "Science" campaign. Targets were mailed lab goggles and beaker-shaped glassware, and sent a series of animated emails directing them to a custom landing page. 


The Results: The campaign was a success, and UserTesting became one of my favorite repeat customers.

Fossil

Fossil rebranded as a luxury brand in September 2023, requiring a refined approach to mainline copy, with Fossil Outlet maintaining its focus on budget-savvy shoppers. 


Responsibilities: Updating websites, SEO, emails, social, product descriptions, and in-store signs for promotions, holidays, and special events for the North American market, with distinct messaging for US and Canadian channels, including translations to Canadian English for both Fossil and Fossil Outlet.

In Addition: My other brands under the Fossil umbrella include Skagen and Watch Station.
