• Art Director

  • May 2016 - May 2017

  Creative lead for the following clients: JTI-Macdonald Special / MSOP / Groupe Geloso/PoppersAs an introduction to the tobacco marketing world, I was assigned the challenge of designing Limited Edition Packaging for Macdonald Special Canada in celebration of Canada’s 150th. Well received by the client as well as consumers, it lead to a complete rejuvenation of all their skews as well as an LEP for the Québec market. Another notable experience was creating the 2017 SU’A POP 360˚ campaign for Poppers Coolers. With a creative carte blanche, Bite Size shaped a new dimension for the Poppers brand. The campaign started as a TV spot, then embraced Québec with a province-wide billboard campaign from highways to bus stops. However, the real edge was when SU’A POP took social media by storm and became a cultural movement.
