About the Project
LeEco seamlessly blends devices, content, applications and distribution in a first-of-its kind ecosystem consisting of several business units across film and music production, digital streaming service, smartphone, accessories, android televisions, and autonomous electric vehicles
My Role
I started as the sole designer for LeEco US wearing as many hats as the word "design" could fathom. As the company grew so did my responsibilites, eventually adopting the role of interim Creative Director and managing an amazing team of talented graphic designers, motion specialists, and videographers.
The Ecosystem
LeEco is a new breed — a global internet company that merges your favorite content and smart devices through an experience that is seamless, affordable and one touch away.
Their open ecosystem spans smartphones, smart TVs, electric cars, content and services. There's a better way to connect, and the next generation of experiences shouldn't be anchored down by cords and cables.
Life is about the journey, and LeEco's blazing a new way forward with you. Welcome to your ecosystem.

Team Learnings
LeEco, was the experience of a lifetime; good, bad and everywhere in between. From a growth perspective, it was phenomenal. I joined a team of 30 other eager individuals in late 2015, and by the end of 2016 the org had skyrocketed to over 900. I went from being the sole designer for graphic, social, print and web, to managing a team of graphic designers, UX contractors, and videographers across brand divisions and state lines. Each day was a new challenge, but I relished the opportunity. I'll never forget the team and colleagues that supported one another through every success, and every upset.
Built designs for events, products, and promotions -- stickers, product box art, spec sheets, business cards, banners, and booths.
