Year
2018 - 2021
Heartland Catfish Company is a U.S. seafood brand known for its quality products, family values, and connection to American aquaculture. Beyond its anniversary storytelling, the brand needed a range of consumer-facing assets to strengthen its presence across retail, digital, print, and advertising channels.
My work focused on helping Heartland Catfish show up more consistently across key touchpoints, from its website and product packaging to recipe content and city-specific advertising.

The Challenge
Heartland Catfish needed creative that could work across very different consumer environments: retail shelves, recipe inspiration, digital ads, audio advertising, and the company website.
The challenge was to keep the brand feeling cohesive while tailoring each asset to its format, audience, and purpose. The work needed to feel approachable, family-friendly, and useful for consumers while still supporting product visibility and market growth.

Execution
I refreshed the Heartland Catfish website to improve visual appeal, usability, and brand storytelling. The updates helped create a more polished digital presence and made it easier for customers to explore products, recipes, and company information.
I also designed a printed recipe booklet featuring alternative cooking methods and food photography, giving consumers more ways to engage with the product. For retail, I created packaging for frozen catfish fillets and nuggets, helping the products feel clear, recognizable, and shelf-ready.
To support broader campaign efforts, I developed custom Pandora ad creative tailored to six city markets and aimed at busy families, extending the brand story across targeted digital audio channels.
