Cai & Kate branding
As a Creative Supervisor at Mower agency, I helped Allegheny Health Network brand a new YouTube series called “Cai & Kate.” The goal of the series is to help toddlers understand their emotions. In the series, a behavorial health therapist named Kate interacts with a chameleon puppet named Cai, who changes color based on his emotions and feelings. I created a playful logo that features a stylized Cai and other launch materials that include colorful foliage elements that would appeal to children. logo branding health graphicdesigner designer…As a Creative Supervisor at Mower agency, I helped Allegheny Health Network brand a new YouTube series called “Cai & Kate.” The goal of the series is to help toddlers understand their emotions.

AAF Buffalo American Advertising Awards show materials
As a Creative Supervisor at Mower agency, I helped create the look and feel of the 2022 Buffalo AAA show. Our team wanted to find a way to celebrate everyone who plays a role in coming up with a killer idea in the advertising world.
We framed the show as a murder-mystery, made the best-in-show work the “killer,” and launched a search to find out whodunnit (who did the work). To create our cast of characters, we identified employees from different agencies across our advertising community and partnered with photographer Luke Copping to bring them to life.
