For the Grand-opening moment of the Rapha Austin Pop-up, I led the creative strategy and direction of this collaborative art-show which celebrated Austin’s vibrant creative and cycling community.
Bringing together Austin photographer Gideon Tsang & artist Will Bryant. Gideon shot a photo series that captured the iconic looks of cycling Austin & will painted over top of these images, as he does to many buildings and products in Austin.
DJ, local beer, a community ride to visit locations the images were shot, etc.. Rapha celebrated the community big and in turn was welcomed into Austin with open arms.

”In the life of athletes - how does one rectify the paradox between working hard to control the outcome, and having faith it’ll work out for reasons outside of their control? Marquis is grateful, oozing with contagious love, poetic, and an incredible athlete. He uses the bike to calm his mind, ease his spirit, and support his endeavor of making the US Olympic marathon team. He runs with his heart and rides for his mind. “

Made a functioning 35mm Pinhole camera using just a skateboard & it’s hardware + some glue.
Then shot a photo series with it while skating from my house to burnside skatepark.
Featured in the Ride-On Art exhibit.
The skate nut had a magnet on the back that stuck to the bearing and could be removed/replaced to function as the shutter.
Photos are just a mathmatical equation of light + perspective.
We at Rapha introduced a new Rally Format to bikepacking. An ultra-adventure with no winners, no losers, no red tape rules.. just to finish the route in 5 days - riders could shape the adventure however they wanted.
We organized the event and route, invited special guest athletes, had a welcoming party, a celebratory send-off, a checkpoint station, offered a bag transfer, and threw a warm welcome party when people arrived at the finish line.
We covered the event with elevated live coverage on social, UGC, and had a dot tracker on rapha’s website allowing people to follow participants and see content live. The coverage created the most noise in adventure cycling that week, and drove more traffic to the rapha website than anything else that month.
We followed up the activation with a full film.
