Thrasio
Art Director, Marketing & Solutions Architect
The Challenge
Thrasio is where goods become great. It is estimated that one out of every six households in the United States bought a Thrasio owned product in 2021. I was part of the team which was responsible for bringing products to market. I oversaw the ideation and creation of all marketing materials for products launched from Q4 2021 - Q2 2022 (~125 parent products). Unfortunately, during my time there, we underwent a reduction in force which pushed me into a new role where I would bring scalable processes and strategic oversight to all of Thrasio’s 200+ brands and over 40,000 products. I was part of a small, but nimble team who assembled and deployed the database of product records that would enable Thrasio to get back on the right track and weather the macroeconomic trends within the CPG space.
