design
logo design
Logo design needs a lot of research. What does your competitors look like, what is your unique offering, and most importantly research the industry back to front.
design
layout design
For each publication I create a style theme and when approved, I stick to it. I apply consistent elements, such as colour, shape and typography - otherwise you're rearranging deck chairs, and options leads to insanity.
design
packaging
My true passion. Originality, character and memorability are at the heart of great brands and of course, great packaging designs. It's easy to understand why – there are hundreds of products out there, all competing for consumers' attention. The only way to set your brand apart is to be different, to be authentic, to be memorable.

VW Taureg SUV
Client
Volkswagen of America Inc.
The brief
Create a campaign based on the culture and lifestyle of automotive enthusiasts. Integrate a compelling idea to gain interest and engagement for a particular ‘riding/driving’ season. This is geared towards an interest or passion in the for the VW brand.
Idea
Family needs are rated as the top trigger in the purchase decision of a car, and is 8x more important as a trigger than better brand image. By a SUV the whole family loves and can relate to.
To each their own
Client
Canada Goose Holding Inc.
The brief
Take a deep dive into the category and brand. What makes the brand unique? How could you differentiate the brand from others in the category? Would you choose a luxury brand or a fast fashion brand?
Idea
This luxury brand has become a winter tradition for the whole family from big to small. Each to their own is an idea that came about when we noticed the diversified Tornonto population believe in Cananda Goose’s quality the whole family wears - like passing this winterlux item down from one generation to the next.
Perfect Pink
Client
French Canadian beauty brand Trompiere.
The brief
Create an launch campaign for a new 100% natural lipgloss that gives you the perfect pink pout by enhancing the pigment in your lips.
Idea
There is only one way to show the “true self” through the power of deception that isn’t based on a contradiction. Deceit allows even the most delicate members of the Animal Kingdom to appear potent. It allows creatures the ability to blend in while standing out in their own uniquely personal ways, and it even gives the most flamboyant and patterned beasts ways to hide in plain sight. To survive, no matter what the day has in store for them. To remain fearless. It’s time to show your true colors in this urban jungle we call home, no matter your role in it’s hierarchy. Are you ready?
