For CNN’s return to the political convention circuit, I played a key role in the creative development of CNN Grill at both the Republican and Democratic National Conventions in 2024. This high-profile pop-up activation served as CNN’s hospitality and broadcast hub and functioned as a strategic brand moment for politicians, media, and influencers.

​

From concept to execution, I shaped the visual identity and spatial design of the CNN Grill, tailoring each zone to reflect the brand's editorial voice and cultural presence. The work spanned exterior and interior graphics, environmental signage, stage set accents, menus, and branded touchpoints throughout the space. I partnered closely with internal stakeholders, fabricators, and production vendors across both cities, adapting quickly to shifting logistics while maintaining consistency in experience and execution.
