lululemon 🤝 #BoomerSooner -- Congrats to all teams on another amazingly successful collegiate launch!
I am still in awe of the lululemon launch at University of Oklahoma… Hundreds of students and fans lining up the night before, the energy of the DJ and the amazing coordinated effort of all those involved, it was an unforgettable opportunity that I am so thankful to have been apart of. Thank you to the lululemon team, especially Allison Hofmann, Hala Salameh, Fiona T., and Maddie Morrow, as well as a very special shout out to the Lids store team at Oklahoma Locker Room, Thane Koning, Dennis Jones, and Dustin Trammell. Lastly, thanks so much for my Lids U teammates Stephanie Revell, Missy Duty, Christine Byers, Benjamin Emmons, and Mallory W. This project came to life with all of your hard work, organization, and passion. Boomer Sooner!

The "Georgie" Fall collection, exclusively at South Moon Under, is here! 🎉 As the Photo Producer for this campaign, I’m excited to share some bts moments of the production process for the e-commerce, editorial shoot, as well as the final creative. From scouting the perfect location to conceptualizing the creative direction for both shoots, it was a rewarding experience collaborating with such a talented team to bring this campaign to life. As always, amazing job from the SMU team with bringing this all together. I couldn’t be more proud of the results! Head to stores or shop online to explore the Georgie Fall collection!
