Copywriting
I love the copywriting puzzle. Figuring out a billboard headline that says a million things. Or a brochure that doesn’t bore people. I’ve worked with clients in publishing, film, retail, advertising and design for over 20 years. My copywriting scope includes promos for film, digital assets and content, brochures, radio commercials, corporate communication, business articles, video scripts, web sites, press and billboard advertising. The lot.
A Mini Portfolio
Commercial Video Scripts
BCIT Women in Engineering Campaign
Become an engineering trailblazer. The world needs the unique perspectives, problem-solving skills, and creativity of women. This script showcased the inspirational stories from three women-identifying graduates and students in engineering.
Father’s Day on Parliament Hill
Championed by MP Matt Jeneroux, ‘Father’s Day on Parliament Hill’ brings together stakeholders and policy makers to bring awareness to men’s mental health. Working with The Adams Agency, I wrote the script for this virtual edition, to bring together Canadian men and help end the stigma.
Alberta Liquor Stores Association
As part of the #AlbertaRocks campaign, and working with The Adams Agency, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek script to counter misinformation being spread in Ontario about Alberta’s liquor laws and stores. We used the beautifully deadpan Alberta Curling Champion Brendan Bottcher, as a nod to the spokesperson for Ontario Beer Facts (Curling Champion Glenn Howard).
Statics and Web
lululemon
lululemon athletica is a technical athletic apparel company for yoga, running, training, and most other sweaty pursuits. I worked for both the digital advertising and in-store experiential departments in a fast-paced retail environment, writing assets, landing pages, and sometimes even wall art.
Kiss-Off Entertainment
I helped curate, set up, and create promotional materials for a short film festival called ‘Love Fool’ by Kiss-Off Entertainment. Showcased on Eventive, the digital festival comprised four edgy films plus a podcast series.
In-Store
BC Liquor Stores
BCLIQUOR serves more than 36 million retail customers every year. As part of a responsible drinking campaign, I worked with monolab on a series of in-store posters and stickers that spoke to different audience groups about thinking before they drink.
Packaging & Identity
Coligny Creek Egg Co.
Working with independent creative director Dan O’Leary, we created a new brand of free-range eggs, including naming, identity, packaging design, and website.
