		<description>Members Project is a revival of American Express' philanthropic efforts.

The program encourages user interaction by asking them to vote for which charities will receive funding from American Express, volunteer their time, or donate from their Cards.

I worked on a team at Ogilvy Worldwide to create a tone for Members Project and a digital marketing plan for the entire year.

		<description>Live Positively is the vehicle that Coca-Cola uses to communicate their altruistic efforts and encourage their customers to join in. Here are a few examples of the copy I created for them:

		<description>Hello Health is an online app that connects doctors and patients, and helps them communicate more efficiently via IM, video chat, email, and online scheduling.

This is the visual identity created by The Barbarian Group. I collaborated with GHava and Jay Parkinson to use this identity for an ad campaign that rolled out in the Fall of 2008. The campaign ran in Time Out NY, The L Magazine, and The Village Voice. It was also installed in various subway stops throughout Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
