No Place like Home
for Delta Air Lines
For once, we made Delta not talk about the thousands of places they can take you to, but the one place we all go back to. From point B to point A, that is where a great airline shows its greatness the most – when they fly you home.

Young Love / Amour de Jeunesse

Life of Photos
for Google
We tend to assume that tech is equitable by default, but it’s not. Historically, cameras have been optimized for white skin, overlooking darker skin tones. Today’s digital and phone cameras carry that same bias. Google changed that once and for all. 

Agency: Wieden + Kennedy
CDs: Jessica Ghersi & Marc Duran
Agency Producers: Jordan Leinen & Marisa Bursteen
Director: Rodney Passé & Daniel Wolfe




Breakfast Ketchup
for Heinz Global
We gave Heinz ketchup a breakfast rebrand. Same sauce, diferent positioning. And I got to change the iconic Heinz bottle, untouched for 150 years, to be a bit more pancakes-syrup-y. The campaign was produced by Lesley Scheuermann and Kirbe Bostick.

Director: Joy Kilpatrick




Breakfast Ketchup
for Heinz Global
The google pixel 6 wasn’t just another pixel. It was the first phone ever made 100% by Google. The biggest feature, it’s a phone that learns from you as you use it. The things that make you who you are will be the things that make this phone what it it.
