Led project with Nike on their 1 Reimagined campaign that packaged an in-book feature (using illustrations in Flaunt’s Art/Witness Protection Issue), an online feature with photography of all 10 sneakers, a mid-February all-female dinner, and a Spring Fashion Issue cover story with SZA (written by me) wearing a pair from the collection.
Fostered and nurtured a new relationship with Nike. Proposed the ideas, spearheaded the production/editing of the Nike Women’s content and the charge toward the execution of the event.
Penned cover story on R&B star SZA, who reveals that she faced adversity with depression during her journey to stardom. Story messaging complements the inspiration behind Nike’s 1 Reimagined collection, which she wears here.
Ahead of dinner and SZA cover story, assigned writer to visit Nike’s headquarters in Portland to cover the unveiling of the 1 Reimagined collection prior to its release.
