TD AMERITRADE
Investing, TLDR
For TD Ameritrade, the challenge was to find relevant, platform-appropriate ways for a financial brand to insert itself into social conversation. As a Social Editor, I managed TDA’s social editorial approach, and led creative and copy development for the brand’s Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. This involved developing an effective design system (rooted in illustration) that could support quick iteration for spur-of-the-moment market shifts, and “edu-taining” content series that grabbed the attention of our loyal investor following and new audiences, alike.

Industry Earnings “Info-GIFs”
We wanted to transform how we spoke about quarterly earnings in a way that was not only useful for our trader audience, but also was visually engaging on the platform. The result were "info-gifs," developed in real-time, that previewed an overview of an industry for a particular quarter. For this project, I lead copy and visual concepting and development.
