CLIENT: 7-Eleven TALENT: Ja’marr Chase
NEW WORK: One of the best wide recievers in the NFL mentioned our brand in a post-game interview, and in less than a week, we had hacked our way into one of the most highly protected sports properties in the world, earning millions in free media.
Campaign Results: 480M impressions, recognition from Cannes, D&AD, One Show, Clios, and earned TV coverage from ESPN, Sportscenter, CBS, FOX, Redzone, as well as earned media from Barstool, Ringer, Hypebeast, and 100’s more digital press outlets.
CLIENT: My ego
Had at least one piece of work recognized by every major international award show (Cannes! D&AD! ADC! One Show! Clio!) at every place I’ve ever worked, across a dozen different projects. Sciencey-types might say that implies “causation”, but I would never be so bold.

CLIENT: Personal
A low-lying curb tragically forced me to say goodbye to my best friend far too soon. R.I.P. iPhone 13 (Jan 2022 - Feb 2022).

CLIENT: Subway DIRECTOR: Ray Smiling EDITOR: Danielle Whatever
For good or bad, Subway is one of the most well known brands in America. When my partner and I took over the account in 2024 things were grim: Sales were down, in-store traffic was down, and Gen-Z wanted nothing to do with them.
CLIENT: Next Insurance DESIGN: Collins ILLUSTRATION: Caspar Wain
After a decade working in agencies, I went in-house to lead a full rebrand at a $4B Sillicon Valley start-up; reimagining logo, design system, tagline, tone of voice, all the way down to where they sourced their coffee and who made their corporate swag.
The rebrand was recognized by Cannes, The One Show, D&AD, Art Director’s Club and more. Below is a case study that attempts to encapsulate everything we made over the course of a year and half in a litte over a minute and a half.
