Staff Position — Bic Media Details
3/17 – 11/18

As the first director of photography and creative strategist at BicMedia, I develop smart, compelling and award-winning content that goes beyond client KPIs – sometimes by up to 250%. • Acting director of photography for notable clients including Hallmark, Discovery Channel, Missouri Lottery, and Mazuma, among others. • Led planning and execution of Discovery Channel’s Shark Week TV spot, garnering nearly 700 million TV impressions with an attention score of 94.26, and an attention index of 123 – 23% fewer interruptions than average. Spot was also used by Walmart in social posts. • Created proprietary virtual-reality rig for use in Kenya to shoot first-of-its- kind VR content for Hallmark Cards. Resulted in positive press coverage on Fast Company, Good Morning America and Hallmark Channel. • Oversaw scope of more than $300K in photography equipment and acted as in-house expert on the constantly-evolving video production space, advising both clients and the agency. • Consistently found ways to “scrappily” create content for clients with lower budgets, allowing them the content they can afford without sacrificing quality.
