2018: THOMSON ROGERS PERSONAL INJURY LAW
Digital display campaign. Writing and Creative Direction. Agency: Kuration. Could thought-provoking ideas about the need for life-long, quality settlements work instead of images of gruff lawyers promising that YOU DON'T PAY! As it turns out, yes and yes again, as the campaign was renewed and expanded.
A couple more from the campaign's second round.
2017: AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL YEAR-END CAMPAIGN
No one likes being lied to. Especially when it's a dictator or corrupt media telling you that things are fine, when you can see they aren't. This Facebook fundraising campaign done with the charity geniuses at Grassriots,com exceeded all goals. I'm also including a Giving Tuesday email that Amnesty received industry praise for, as being "basically perfection." Yes, I write emails. I write everything because it all matters. Art direction: Deborah Caprara.

Writer with Jacknife Design for this gutsy Canadian small business insurance provider. Video, digital ads, brand language, radio, the whole she-bang.  TruShield sales increased by 128% over the previous year.

The integrated campaign also included out-of-home and radio.

2017/18: AVON CANADA WEB STRATEGY/WRITING
