Summary

I joined Under Armour just ahead of the launch of UA Rewards, their new loyalty program. My focus was on designing a new loyalty email system that would support UA Rewards communications while staying true to the brand. To make these emails stand out, I introduced a bold, inverted color scheme, ensuring that loyalty messaging felt impactful, engaging, and unmistakably Under Armour.

When Under Armour transitioned from an agency-driven model to an internal team, they needed a cohesive design process to support their growing marketing operations. I stepped in to establish that foundation, creating a structured workflow that bridged strategy, copy, design, marketing, and development. By streamlining collaboration, I helped ensure that projects moved efficiently from concept to execution while maintaining a high standard of quality.

Over the next three months, I designed an entire loyalty-focused email system, building out 25 new content blocks and 27 fully designed emails. These modular components allowed the team to scale communications quickly, maintaining both flexibility and consistency across campaigns.
