trilipiderm

Goodbye dry skin. Hello, balance. I was brought in on a year-plus contract as Executive Creative Director for Trilipiderm. Collaborating with the team from @museheadquarters we rearticulated the brand from platform through positioning, evolving a set of clinical-care products into a fully-conceived lifestyle brand.

Ultimately I redesigned a simplified product packaging, launched three new products, created all of the performance marketing and social media, designed a new Shopify website, created an Amazon Marketplace presence, multiple ad campaigns, sales decks and print collateral.

This combined effort resulted in a tripling of year-over-year sales.

 

I was responsible for creating all of the performance marketing emails, both editorial and sales promotions.

I created and designed the Trilipiderm’s Amazon presence, storefront, enhanced brand content and SEO optimization.

 

I shifted the editorial and visual emphasis to reflect a more diverse set of customers actively living, going outside, and enjoying the skin they are in.

I created skincare regimens grouping the products into a clear, simple system, one for the face and one for the body. We introduced sample kits which greatly grew customer acquisition.

I also named discounted product bundles, creating concepts around travel and living an active, outdoor lifestyle: The Weekender, The Stowaways, The Beach Lover, The Overnighter, The Sightseer, to name a few. These became hugely successful marketing assets.

Healthcare meets joy. I led the brand strategy, naming and design for Infinite Health Zone, a health and wellness space with an integrative approach to treating each client with a focus on optimizing the performance of mind, body, and soul.







I led the client through a strategy session using “The Golden Circle” as a guiding principle. followed by brand positioning and personality, a thorough naming process and audit, customer personas, and concepts for the physical office space, re-imagined,

Storyzone

Tell your story. Build a legacy. I created this concept in collaboration with two former colleagues at Microsoft, a cross-platform experience primarily focused on connecting and preserving seniors’ life stories to their families and tribes. Work in progress, moving now into the technology phase.


I created the brand, positioning, design, and user experience, a multi-platform set of interconnected native apps and web platforms. Launching first in congregate senior housing environments, the principal driving force is radical simplicity, employing voice commands and easy-to-manage privacy settings.

alfagia_logo_new_with_space.jpg

I led the branding, logo updates, packaging design, and digital presence for Alfagia di Volterra, a boutique truffle import company bringing fresh truffles found by beloved trained dogs in Italy to NYC within 36 hours. I came up with the idea of elevating the dogs to team leaders and introducing the dog who found the truffles––by name. Along with selling fresh truffles directly to restaurants, we created an initial five-product collection, sold in select premium retail stores.

Upskill your life. I led the brand development, strategy, mission writing and design for the soon-to-launch Health Academy, including writing the mission and positioning for the brand.

We started with a target towards estheticians, offering a learning platform to expand their practice into other wellness arenas and connect to community and patients.

Along with articulating the brand for all investor presentations, I also designed branded products around nutrition, dermatology, mental immunity, and ultimately prescriptions by mail.⠀⠀⠀

 

 

I was brought on board the team at Linder Family Partners on a 4-month contract to lead creative strategy and collaborate with former team members from PCA SKIN on several companies within their brand portfolio. I created the Linder Labs brand and positioning, a strategic incubator, creating brands from scratch, evolving existing businesses, and launching new products.

I was hired to lead the brand evolution of Safe-Tee Chemical, founded over 60 years ago with the simple goal to create non-toxic cleaning products that don’t compromise on strength. In order to broaden the appeal I re-named the brand Safetee Clean, redesigned the logo and site, and led the launch of their first direct-to-consumer product: Safetee Home.

THE FUTURE OF SAFETY IS CLEAN.

Solutions and dignity for all working parents. I was brought onboard by Daisy Wademan Dowling, MBA to lead the brand strategy, positioning, and design for a networking, content, and support platform for parents who work.
