Kory Brown: Creative Design Director,
AirStrip Technologies
"I worked closely with Doug producing marketing videos, illustrations and animated interface designs. I was very impressed with his design choices on each of the projects that he participated. Doug is very knowledgeable with mainstream design tools and is a very quick study when projects required the use of new applications."
Tim Oten: GM, Chukar Cherries
"Doug is a skillful designer with the ability to navigate detailed projects in a wide variety of mediums; from web design and email marketing, to packaging design, brand guidelines and Power Point presentations. Doug is at his best when challenged creatively-and his work does not disappoint."
Pamela O'Kane: VP Operations, GiftTree.com
"Not only is Doug a skilled Creative Director, but he is also a great mentor. I watched as he trained, mentored, and provided helpful feedback to a new graphic designer hired right out of college. Doug's support really allowed him to bloom, with a huge gain not only in technical proficiency but also in confidence."
What do I specialize in?
Well, a lot of things, actually.
What Sets Me Apart
I am a skilled graphic designer with considerable experience in digital and print media. I have experience with website design, branding, illustrations, packaging, and more. I am proud of my creative thinking skills, as well as my ability to execute designs effectively.
I am committed to personal and professional development and regularly learn new skills, such as AI and 3D modeling. I am adaptable, ambitious, and eager to stay on top of the latest trends and technologies in the industry to improve my designs.
I am also passionate about both design and mentoring junior designers. I would love to become a Senior Graphic Designer or Associate Creative Director to keep leading and contributing to projects while guiding emerging designers.
Collaboration and creative communication are critical to my approach, and I'm excited to bring new ideas.
