Hi there! I’m Chez, pronounced “Shay”, and I’m a multidisciplinary designer with over 10 years of professional experience varying from motion graphics and graphic design to video production and creative direction. My goal as a designer is to make adaptable creative visual strategies that showcase each brand’s unique message and style to position them as the industry leaders that they are. Furthermore, my unique style brings a diverse voice and a clean user-friendly aesthetic. I’m used to fast turnaround times, working independently and with teams, and am known for my strong client communication skills. I work hard, learn fast, and love what I do.
