Scope

Patagonia’s 2024 election campaign needed to move beyond awareness into genuine civic participation—without feeling like a brand co-opting a political moment. I led social strategy and creative direction for “Vote Her,” working across Environmental, Creative Studio, and Brand Marketing from early ideation through execution. I embedded platform-native thinking into the creative process—shaping formats, storytelling, and publishing strategy to ensure the work resonated authentically and drove participation. During the campaign’s main push, I also activated Patagonia’s ambassador network, extending reach and credibility through trusted community voices.

Impact

  • 13.3M impressions and 9.9M reach through organic social, outperforming Patagonia's 2020 election campaign despite increased platform restrictions on electoral content

  • 563K engagements and 729K video views with a 6.43% engagement rate across a multi-format campaign

  • "This is…Not a…" assets on Instagram and TikTok became the highest-performing posts on both platforms at that point in 2024 — a record subsequently broken by the Leave Democracy Better Than You Found It and Yvon Chouinard statement posts later in the campaign

  • Drove 1,785 volunteer shifts with the League of Conservation Voters, exceeding the mobilization goal by 19%, proving that Patagonia's community, when reached with the right message, converts from environmental commitment to direct political action

  • Established a replicable framework for advocacy-driven social storytelling that has directly shaped how subsequent campaigns are briefed and built

  • Strengthened the role of performance insights in early-stage creative development, improving how campaign ideas were shaped for social outcomes
