THIS IS YOU

A brilliant designer and a strategic conceptual force. You love solving problems individually and through collaboration. You design and create stunning brand aesthetics that can be carried across channels. Your work speaks to your fluency in functional design systems, branding, and integrated campaigns—but also demonstrates your love for fine art, illustration, typography, and color theory. Designing for motion and video are native to your thinking and skills. You don’t subscribe to a single style, but you know what you stand for. You’re also not hesitant to wear multiple hats when you need to, because you’re innovative, efficient, and ego-free. You are self-starting, meticulous but quick, and obsessed with both design and concepting. You contribute to a tight knit team, partnering closely with your senior copywriter and working with team members from a variety of disciplines.
