Senior Designer
While working at me&lewis, I held the lead design role in various branding projects. I supervised intermediate and junior designers in creating concepts, comps, layouts and final art. I led creative discovery sessions, polished design briefs, made a lot of coffee, drank a lot coffee, and could often be heard asking innocent by-standers "...wanna hear a joke?"
Clients included: Ener-C, Gardener’s Dream, Miller Genuine Draft Global, White Spot, Leith Wheeler, St. Paul’s Hospital, and SpringFree Trampoline.
