Multiple myeloma is a rare form of blood cancer that disproportionately affects the Black community. Despite the high incidence of myeloma in the Black community, most patients are diagnosed later when compared to other patient populations and are underrepresented in the research and clinical studies that are driving new treatments. 

Black Men Deserve More was the culmination of a one-year engagement to increase awareness of and trust in MMRF among Black patient populations, particularly Black men. As Project Director, I oversaw the delivery of a research-driven landscape analysis, a targeted grassroots outreach campaign playbook, and a multi-channel distribution strategy for the 30-second spot, which has garnered over 300K+ views online.
