Social Media video Direction

I bring ideas to life through dynamic social videos that grab attention and tell a story. From initial concept to final cut, I lead the creative direction; shaping visuals, pacing, and tone to make each product shine in an engaging and authentic way. Partnering with our in-house video and photo teams, I stay tuned to cultural trends and audience insights to keep content fresh and relevant. I also work closely with partners such as but not limited to Disney, Peanuts, and Nintendo to create videos that respect and enhance both our brands’ voices. Depending on the project, I dive into music choices, editing, and sometimes hand modeling to ensure every detail hits the mark.

Snoopy Typewriter Video

I led concept, music selection, and editing for this social video featuring our 75th Anniversary Snoopy Technoplush. The typewriter detail sparked a playful connection to Taylor Swift’s Fortnight video and her Tortured Poets Department era. I pitched the idea to lean into that visual parallel, working with our video team to shoot it in a way that felt moody, on-trend, and shareable. The result is a fun, culturally relevant moment that blends product storytelling with internet-savvy humor.

Wienermobile Ornament Reveal Video

This video was one of my favorites to work on. We pushed the envelope to announce our new Hallmark Keepsake Wienermobile ornament with Oscar Mayer. It starts focused on the ornament and then zooms out to show a whole Christmas tree decorated with bare hot dogs. It’s a silly surprise meant to catch people’s attention and bring some humor to the launch.
