Editorial authority for a digital subscription business

Role
Executive Creative Director, Brand Design and Marketing
Mandate
Lead brand systems, product launches, acquisition campaigns, and subscription experiences
Scale
Multidisciplinary team of 50
Outcome
Surpassed one million digital subscribers; subscription revenue grew 20% in 2014 and 46% in 2015

At The New York Times, I led Brand Creative through the company’s shift to digital subscriptions, directing a multidisciplinary team of 50 across brand systems, product launches, acquisition campaigns, and subscription experiences. I also built the NYT brand marketing guidelines, giving teams a clearer shared system for typography, motion, product expression, and campaign work while preserving the authority of the newsroom.

During this period, The Times surpassed one million digital subscribers; subscription revenue grew 20% in 2014 and 46% in 2015.

Brand system — Motion and typography created a shared language across editorial and marketing.
