ByteLight

Creative Lead

Boston, MA. March 2012-October 2013.

I joined ByteLight in its very early stages and established its brand, voice, and aesthetic from the ground up - from founding to $4.25 million in funding. I led all of ByteLight's creative efforts and worked directly with software and hardware engineers to bring technology and products to life through art direction & design, front end HTML & CSS coding, UI/UX design, motion graphics, photography, video, social media, and presentations. I put together product demos and presentations for new business pitches that would help this small team of less than 10 people land pilots with 3 of the top 10 largest global retailers. I oversaw the implementation of all things visual and creative and made sure they met and maintained the highest of standards - my own.
