The rare piece of work that writes itself. The brief was to launch a Scratch-Off game called, "Bacon." Whelp, the smell of bacon gets us all out of bed in the morning, so we encouraged people to "Wake up and smell the win."

We all remember losing our quarters to PAC-MAN. In fact, those arcade machines gobbled up nearly $1 billion of our quarters the year PAC-MAN launched in 1980. So we launched the Lottery's new PAC-MAN scratch-off with a call to action to "Get Your Quarters Back."
Because this was for the New York Lottery we needed to do something distinctly New York. So we updated the original game to feature the streets of the state as the PAC-MAN maze for our online game.

Hornitos Tequila, in collaboration with the Latin rights organization LULAC, has initiated a program dedicated to sharing vital information within the Spanish-speaking community during the COVID-19 crisis. Our partnership with LULAC involved the consolidation, translation, and design of an information toolkit covering crucial resources, ranging from health-related guidance to legal assistance.
#AyudaEnEspanol (#HelpInSpanish) was launched across social platforms to create awareness for the program. This hashtag provided a rallying cry, encouraging individuals to contribute their support in Spanish. People proudly displayed their #AyudaEnEspanol signs, sharing their reasons and stories behind wanting to help. The impact was significant, with celebrities like Eva Longoria joining the cause and contributing to the collective effort.
As part of the redesign of the New York Lottery’s Top Dog and Fat Cat scratch-off tickets, we tapped into pet owners' love for their furry friends. We invited them to share photos of their dogs and cats on our Instagram posts for a chance to have their pets transformed into classically painted masterpieces. These elegantly framed portraits were showcased in a gallery setting then presented to the pet owners as a personal keepsake.

We designed the Lucky Dog Series from the ground up. The tickets and prizes were designed as a treat for doggos and hoomans alike. So naturally, we composed a song that dogs and humans could enjoy together. To get their ears perked, we used all the sounds dogs love most: wind chimes, leash jingles, squeaky toys and more. We interviewed a dog behavioralist to ensure we hit the right notes and frequencies. The song launched on social, audio platforms, and as a hilariously adorable music video.
The New Yorker approved. Turn it up.

The New York Lottery wanted to rebrand their new Multiplier Scratch-Off tickets. So, we renamed them the X-Series, and made the "X" both the vocal and visual centerpiece of a new campaign.

Creativity Pick of the Day
To introduce the Windows smartphones, BBDO created a playful world with charming characters showcasing the new features. Using these characters, we developed an Augmented Reality experience for users to virtually unbox and interact with the phones. By placing a visual marker, users could transform any mobile phone into a Windows 7 device of their choice.
Launched as an integrated campaign, my role was Creative Director across all digital experiences.
A nine hole interactive office-themed golf course that spans nine custom designed web pages to promote the FedExCup golf season.
Our goal was to create a website that could illustrate the global reach of FedEx and provide access to relevant international business content. The solution was to literally reveal FedEx working tirelessly behind a reverse image of the world.
The launch of Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in Times Square was a big deal for the London-based brand, especially considering the growing competition across the tourism scene at the time.
Our goal was simple: create buzz for the grand opening, capture content for the campaign, and make Madame Tussaud’s a must-see. Our idea was to take the wax figures out of the museum and set them loose in the city. The combination of global personalities against NYC's cultural backdrop offered just the right amount of contrast.
After a couple of debates about the risk of melting wax, Fidel Castro rode the ferry to see the Statue of Liberty, no permit was required, we simply bought him a ticket like any regular passenger.
The stunt worked. The press (and client) loved it, the story ran everywhere giving the museum the boost it needed right before the grand opening. We turned a small budget into a media success, with a major highlight—the cover of The New York Times.
