Xifaxan was the first pharmaceutical brand I worked on, marking my entry into the world of healthcare advertising. This two-week oral treatment is prescribed for patients with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D). Collaborating with the award-winning animation studio Nathan Love, we brought Gut Guy to life—a memorable character designed to engage audiences and personify the treatment’s purpose with creativity and impact.
