Current Role

The Weather
Channel

Repositioning an iconic news brand as a culture-first social presence

The Shift

How do you make a 40-year-old weather brand worth following on TikTok?

The Weather Channel had built its reputation as the most trusted name in weather. But trust alone doesn't earn followers. When I joined, TWC social was primarily a news distribution channel: accurate, reliable, and invisible to anyone under 35. My mandate was to change that without losing what made TWC essential. The answer: make weather feel like culture, not a broadcast.

  • Built and own the visual identity system across all social platforms
  • Developed TWC's culture-first content strategy targeting Gen Z
  • All video production, editing, and motion graphics — planned and reactive
  • Designed templates and visual systems that make TWC instantly recognizable in a feed
  • Partnered with Care Bears on branded cloud content collaboration
  • Led real-time social execution during breaking weather events
  • Established creative quality bar — if it's not ready, it doesn't go out

Culture-First Moments


Love Island x TWC

When Love Island USA returned, we asked: what if TWC covered it like breaking weather? The "Spark Forecast" framed every couple as a weather system, complete with a Spark Scale rating and meteorological read on the relationship. The "Storm Track Forecast" mapped each couple's arc across the season using actual radar imagery. Weather is just vibes with data. Love Island is just vibes without data. We gave it data.


Then & Now

TWC's social visuals were inconsistent and broadcast-derived, functional but invisible in a feed. I built a new visual system from scratch: clean editorial typography, a signature blue left-border bar, consistent logo placement, and a hierarchy that works at thumb-scroll speed. Hover each card to see the transformation.
