Various Projects
Gallegos
Company Rebrand
Some call them stone masons. Others, brick masons. Regardless, they’ve been masters of their craft in the Rocky Mountains for 50 years and counting. In a world that focusses on finished projects and lacks any form of humanity, Gallegos set out to show their passion for what they do by highlighting different areas of their expertise through their people rather than projects. We were tasked with rebranding their company (new logo and tagline) and developing a new marketing campaign.

Eagle Climbing + Fitness
Grand Opening Campaign
Climbing is a popular summer sport in the Vail Valley. The key word being summer, until now. Eagle Climbing + Fitness opened the first indoor climbing gym in Eagle late Fall of 2018 making it the only true climbing gym from Golden to Grand Junction. We were happy to help them with the launch with some unique ways to expand their reach and get the word out to every climber and yoga enthusiast within 100 miles of their facility.

The Wildlife Council Awareness Campaign
The Wildlife Council came to Pilgrim with a need to educate the public on how exactly hunters and anglers can be considered conservationists. Since fees from hunting and angling licenses pays to help protect, conserve and study wildlife and their environments, they actually do a lot more than you might think.

Pilgrim Thanksgiving Gifts
It's only fitting that Pilgrim use Thanksgiving as their holiday of choice to say thanks to our clients, vendors and friends that we are thankful for. For 2015 we chose to a unique gift of a pair of pumpkin pies. One for the client to enjoy and one to share with someone of their choosing. The laser-etched pie boxes delivered a message on their own and a longer message when placed next to each other.
Rocky Mountain Health Plans
For ten years Rocky Mountain Health Plans was known for their tagline: "We understand Colorado. We understand you." They didn't want a full pivot, but wanted us to give them a refresh.

Coloradans Against Auto Theft
This holiday campaign was targeted at making people aware of dangers of "puffing." Puffing is when a driver leaves their car running while unattended. 39% of Coloradans don’t know leaving a car running unattended is illegal (2016 Talmey-Drake Poll). There were 199 “puffer” car thefts in 2016, with an average of 17 stolen per month (ATICC).

Delta Dental Foundation of Colorado
The Delta Dental Foundation of Colorado came to us to create a campaign aimed at the Latino family to start brushing their toddlers teeth from day 1. Along with a TV spot and website we created an ambient giant tooth coated in dry erase paint - kids can mark it up, then 'brush' off the mess with giant toothbrushes. And a mirror cling to inspire better brushing habits.
Once
The place to come to learn to not suck in advertising. I took on the role Creative Director at Amélie Company and in order for me to learn more about my role I sought outside help by forming underground group discussions from industry leaders, called ONCE.
