How do you use one of the greatest NBA players of all time, if not the greatest, to promote DraftKings’ elevated football game-watching experience? You give him an NFL offer of course.

DraftKings is not just a betting company. It's a company of bettors. They understand the things customers are looking for: Generous offers. Innovative products. Best-in-class service. And so much more.
In this campaign, we shine a light on the customers themselves and show how everything we do is with the customer in mind. Because part of being the ultimate host is showing a deep understanding of your guests’ wants and needs, then acting on it. Because we get you, we got that.

DraftKings was founded in Boston in 2012. So when sports betting was finally legalized in Massachusetts in 2022, it was a huge deal. We created an integrated campaign “BET LOCAL” to remind Mass folks that we are the authentic hometown sportsbook. And we used a cast of Boston sports heroes from Red Sox Hall of Famer David Ortiz to Bruins legend Zdeno Chara to Olympian Aly Raisman.

To celebrate the upcoming NFL season in a big way, we created an eye popping 3D billboard in a busy area of Baltimore near the Ravens stadium.

The Wrigley Field Addison Street CTA station is one of the busiest stations in Chicago.

I developed the design for the takeover which featured Wrigley Field’s famous bricks & ivy but with a DraftKings twist.

Then, in 2021, the event moved back to Vegas where we painted the town blue and yellow with high-impact OOH all over the strip. Winner winner, chicken dinner.

When Zebra launched the TC8000 handheld scanner, it was revolutionary for the warehouse and logistics industries. The new technology in the TC8000 made users 14% more productive. This was groundbreaking for the industry because it essentially saved each user one additional hour per shift. This was BIG news. To get the word out, we created a global campaign that took famous landmarks, art and architecture and showed them 14% incomplete. The TC8000 launch was one of the most successful in Zebra’s history.

The White Sox and Chicago share the same blue collar grit. Chicago was built upon the big, broad shoulders of those who bring a tenacious work ethic every day. We brought this sentiment to life in a game intro video narrated by Chance the Rapper.
Role: Art Director/Designer
Like the phoenix rising, Chicago was reborn from fire. Rebuilt with determination. And reimagined as a force to be reckoned with. DePaul Athletic’s determination to rise again mirrors Chicago’s own resurgence. Blue Rising is a rallying cry as a new regime brings renewed energy. A new athletic director leads the charge. New coaches lead the way. And new athletes are ready to make their indelible mark. But, forever stamped upon DePaul’s DNA is the same blue-collar drive, defiant heart, city swagger and Chicago work ethic.
