Reached 3 million CXOs and senior decision-makers
Increased sustainability page traffic by 232%
Campaign recognized by the Digiday Content Marketing Awards, Shorty Awards, and MUSE Creative Awards
Role
Creative strategy • Art direction
Overview
Most sustainability campaigns look remarkably alike, making it difficult for organizations to establish a distinctive presence. Partnering with other creatives, I developed a flexible visual system that gave sustainability its own recognizable identity while remaining unmistakably McKinsey.
Centered on bold, unexpected imagery, a transparent blue overlay, and a signature green pixel, the system scaled seamlessly across web, social, events, and paid media. Just as importantly, it was designed for adoption—giving designers across the firm a framework they could apply consistently while adapting it to new content and channels.

Featured project: McKinsey's flagship case studies
Role
Concept development • Art direction
Overview
The strongest hero experiences distill a story into a single compelling idea.
Working within an established visual style, I developed a unique visual metaphor for each case study that captured the client's transformation, then art directed an external animation studio to bring that concept to life.
Together, the artwork and motion created an immersive introduction that expressed the transformation at the heart of each story before a single word was read.

Paid & organic social
Featured project: McKinsey thought leadership and enterprise marketing campaign assets
Role
Creative strategy • Art direction
Overview
Every social asset has just a few seconds to earn someone's attention.
I translated content into compelling visuals that enticed audiences to explore further. Through thoughtful hierarchy, typography, imagery, and composition, I created a hundred of social assets that turned everyday touchpoints into opportunities to amplify McKinsey's ideas and strengthen its brand.
Digital brand identity
Featured project: Princeton University social media avatar
Role
Brand strategy • Identity design
Overview
When Princeton first embraced social media, its visual identity needed to feel just as confident and recognizable in a tiny digital space as it did everywhere else. I reinterpreted the University's historic shield as a simplified social media avatar, preserving tradition while giving a bold, enduring presence in a new way of communicating. More than 15 years later, it continues to represent the University across its social media channels.
