HUMANLY - NOT A HOME


In a country like the US, where homelessness is attempted to be solved with quick-fix solutions, we needed to address the underlying issue: living in a tent or a car will never compare to the feeling of having a place to call home.

An idea developed entirely in-house, voted on by the people of Chicago, honored with the People’s Choice Award at the 2024 Chicago Addys, and later went on to win an Emmy as well.

In 2018, when I accepted the challenge of becoming Creative Director at Wolf BCPP (Chile), one of the first achievements with my team was participating in a pitch that made us the AOR for Burger King Chile during the Machado years. The following work is proof of four years of consistent brand building, always driven by bold and creative ideas that were deeply rooted in Burger King’s distinctive branding and unique identity. It’s worth noting that Burger King continues to work with Wolf in Chile to this day.





BURGER KING - TO GO. AS FAR AS YOU CAN.



The biggest proof you can order your Whopper to go, but you won’t take it far away.

After exploring thousands of Google Street View locations, we discovered these 100% genuine, caught-on-camera moments of people enjoying their Whoppers outside BK restaurants. Enough to declare: You can order your Whopper to go, but we can't guarantee you'll get too far.














This guy really loved the idea

BURGER KING - LAWYERS


Burger King introduced their new Quarter Pound King, and because it closely resembled a competitor’s burger, we decided to launch it with a bit of legal backup.



















BURGER KING - HAUNTED WHOPPER


We celebrated Halloween by letting the dead have a Whopper their way.

Through a contest on our digital platforms, we invited a group of Burger King fans to join medium Vanessa Daroch for a séance in an abandoned hospital, asking the spirits what our Halloween 2019 Whopper should be.











BURGER KING - KING OF THE STREETS


Where there’s a king, there’s a Whopper.

To launch Burger King's new delivery service in Chile, we created a campaign that turned every street named after a king into a spot where you could enjoy a free Whopper.











MUSEUM OF MEMORY AND HUMAN RIGHTS - THE MEMORY DIAL


Reliving the first day of a dictatorship to help new generations understand the value of human rights.

When General Augusto Pinochet overthrew the Chilean government on September 11, 1973, his regime quickly moved to silence the media. But radio was harder to control. Stations across the country aired reports of the atrocities that would shape Chile for the next 17 years.

To commemorate 45 years since the beginning of the dictatorship — and to help preserve the memory of what must never be repeated — we partnered with the Museum of Memory and Human Rights to reconstruct a minute-by-minute timeline of the first day of the coup d’état using original broadcasts.

Now a permanent exhibit, the project continues to generate earned media for the museum every September 11.

ESPN - INTERISTAS


Turning Italy’s Serie A into Chile’s Favorite TV Series

In 2020, when Inter Milan added Chile’s two biggest football stars of this generation—Alexis Sánchez and Arturo Vidal—to their roster, we saw a unique opportunity to connect with the Chilean audience and get them excited about following the European championships broadcast on ESPN.

Even though "Serie A" translates to "First Division" in English, for Spanish-speaking audiences the word Serie is closely tied to TV shows. That insight sparked the idea for INTERISTAS – Una Serie A de ESPN (Interistas – A TV Series by ESPN): the first online series written in real-time, inspired by the weekly performances of Arturo and Alexis.

We treated their season like a scripted drama. The campaign followed the players closely throughout the tournament, turning each match into an “episode” and building a deeper emotional connection with fans back home. From the advertising to the weekly match recaps, everything was crafted to feel like part of an unfolding TV series.

USA TODAY - TO THE POINT


USA Today’s new communicational platform to celebrate 40 years of journalism to the point.

USA Today, one of the most recognizable names in the news industry, needed a refreshed image to stay relevant with its audience and connect with a younger generation.

We developed a new visual identity and brand voice to meet that goal, modernizing the way they communicate and giving the nationwide network a tone that is clear, direct, and to the point.
