As Lead Creative Coordinator for the WFM Northeast Creative Team — Jon Anderson, Jennifer Heal, Diana Adaros, Catie Randall, and Natasha Bali — I directed the design and execution of a custom, interactive experience for the Whole Foods Market 365 Fort Greene Pre-Opening Party. “Catch a 365 Rainbow” was an immersive AR digital art installation where guests danced beneath a vibrant fruit-and-vegetable rainbow with blueberry showers. This influencer-focused event took place on January 25, 2018, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), New York, showcasing innovative experiential design and brand storytelling.

As Global Art Director, I led the creation of the Whole Foods Market Mailer, a beautifully styled monthly print magazine distributed to over 3 million households. Collaborating with top food stylists, designers, and chefs, I directed the editorial vision, design, and photography to deliver visually compelling, on-brand storytelling that showcased seasonal products, recipes, and lifestyle content while reinforcing Whole Foods Market’s + Amazon brand identity and customer experience.

As Global Art Director for Whole Foods Market, I led the art direction and creative execution for Whole Foods Market’s 365 campaign image collections, including thoughtfully staged vignettes of new products in updated packaging. While the packaging design was developed by the design team, I was responsible for unveiling the refreshed look across all brand touch points — including posters, digital media, email campaigns, website, and in-store visuals — through photography that captured product groupings and categories, creating a cohesive, visually compelling launch that reinforced brand identity and customer engagement.

I developed the concept and led art direction for a still-life “rock garden” of Whole Foods Market body care products, executed across print, in-house, digital, and media channels. This visually compelling concept elevated the product line, creating cohesive, brand-forward imagery that became one of the most successful body care campaigns to date, driving record sales and strengthening the overall customer experience.

I created the concept and led the art direction for Whole Foods Market’s “Cupid’s Fork” Valentine’s Day campaign. Collaborating with an illustrator to bring the concept to life, the design was executed across all marketing channels — print, digital, and in-store signage — and became a lasting visual motif, repurposed for three consecutive years, even beyond my tenure, demonstrating the enduring impact of the concept and creative direction
