A Creative's Journey @ The Bird

Over eight years at Twitter, I grew through various design roles within two dynamic teams. As Senior Art Director on the internal Brand team, I led the development of Twitter’s refreshed visual identity through strategic campaigns and scalable design systems, ensuring consistency across marketing and product platforms. Before that, I served as Design Lead on the Twitter Next Creative Development team, where I worked with strategists, creatives, and technologists to produce innovative work for top-tier partners like Bank of America, Citi, Spotify, and Samsung. From integrated digital campaigns to creative social formats, my work consistently pushed creative limits while addressing complex advertiser challenges and enhancing Twitter’s reputation for design excellence.

Twitter Brand:
Imperfect, by Design

We wanted an art-first approach to our brand identity that encompassed emotion and expression. So rather than build the system up from each component part or build around a specific element, we embarked upon building a creative design system that’s intentionally imperfect.

The design rationale is expressive and dynamic, bold and layered. We avoid ever looking overly polished, refined, or polite. This lets us tell stories with emotion and color – just like people on Twitter tell theirs.

We developed a tool called the Design Matrix to guide visual decision-making and flex our brand expression. It helps us adapt to different audiences, tones, topics, and contexts—whether the shift is driven by mood, locale, or even the tilt of the sun. This system gives us the freedom to dial expression up or down, depending on the moment and the message.

Role: Associate Creative Director, Twitter Brand Studio

As Associate Creative Director on Twitter’s in-house studio team, I helped lead a multidisciplinary group of designers, art directors, writers, and producers to concept and execute a wide range of creative for the brand. Our work spanned integrated campaigns, one-off ads, localized activations, and IRL experiences—connecting Twitter’s platform, culture, and community through design-driven storytelling.
