This new body wash collection for method was a big step into the personal care and beauty space. As a brand, method is know for their cleaning products, but the challenge was to design a product line that delivers a elevated experience for the consumer.
As the personal care lead designer, I was involved in every touchpoint of this product launch. I worked closely with the business team, copywriters, formulation, and fragrance partners to develop creative for packaging, ISM, eCom, and press assets—as well as the marketing launch.
Role: Design Lead
method® developed a naturally derived line of body washes specifically geared toward the modern man. With the shower being a place where multiple wellness trends converge and male consumers are generally underserved, we realized we had an opportunity. The approach was combining method’s minimalist design sense, nature-inspired fragrances, and personality to deliver a premium offering for the consumer.

In April 2016, method® took its commitment to sustainability a step further with the opening of its new Chicago factory. As the Lead Designer on this project my task was to bring the colorful brand to life within a 150,000 square-foot manufacturing facility. Ultimately the project was successful, considering we were dubbed the “World's Most Eco-Chic Factory” by Inc. Magazine.

For the Summer 2011 seasonal story, Williams-Sonoma wanted to find out what American barbecue is all about. So they partnered with culinary rockstars Michael and Bryan Voltaggio to visit the four cities that put barbecue on the map.
The rich tradition of America barbecue provided endless visual inspiration. As the designer, I developed a toolkit that included logos, illustrations, textures, color palettes, and typography treatments that was shared with the internal creative teams.

Ecover was founded in 1979, and has a long heritage within the European market. In 2016 they were looking to rebrand, with the intention of creating a deeper emotional connection with consumers and driving household penetration.
As the art director, I had to approach Ecover as not just a cleaning company but a lifestyle brand. We developed messaging, content, and images that could live across both the digital and retail environment.
Role: Art Director
The overall goal was to capture the mix of colorful and graphic imagery that plays well to our social audience. For this collection of social content I took the same approach when showcasing our products.
