about me

Ever since I was a kid, I was fascinated by art and technology. When it was time for me to pick a degree program, design and video was an easy choice. I earned my Bachelor of Science Degree in Digital Arts & Design from Full Sail University, graduating as Salutatorian. Full Sail’s unique hands-on curriculum and strong industry connections gave me a solid foundation in creative problem-solving and design.

I spent a few years at Banner Public Affairs, a bipartisan public affairs firm based in Washington, D.C. I helped develop brand and marketing strategies for clients such as the American Business Water Coalition, DC Water, Carbon Free NY, and the New York State Department of Health. My role involved everything from creating ad campaigns to designing web and UI interfaces, working closely with marketing and PR teams (in-house and external) to bring these projects to life. I've also collaborated closely with NTT Data and the Family Online Safety Institute, ensuring their messaging was clear, cohesive, and impactful.

In 2024, I dove back into freelance work full time. I’ve always known that I wanted to have my own business. I’m setting the foundation here to start my own small studio of creatives that focuses on bringing great design to everyone; from small startups to major companies, non-profits to individuals launching their own businesses. I want to create a studio that isn’t focused on the largest check or the quickest solution, but a studio that helps develop lasting brands, big and small, that connect with people.

I bring a unique approach to the creative process. In a world that’s leaning towards artificial content, you need a creative with years of real-world experience who can help you grow.

why it matters

Before your website, before your sales, before your audience, there’s your branding. It's essential to any business; big or small, single logo or full scale brand identity. It’s the difference between making the sale or not; earning the trust or not. It sets you apart where nearly every industry in every niche is saturated and booming. I believe this all starts with storytelling. All of our stories are different and that’s what makes every brand different. Mediocracy doesn’t sell anymore! An intro call with me is always free. Reach out and we can discuss any problems you’re facing and how we can solve them.

"Dylan is exceptionally talented in design, and has helped our DTC brand a lot in creating captivating visuals. He is very responsive and eager to learn!"

Alp Y. – lulley

"I hired Dylan for various projects across a span of 5 years and 2 different companies in completely different industries (Early Childhood Education & AI/ML Adult Learning). That really speaks to the dynamic skill set and flexibility Dylan shows in all of the work he was able to complete. Dylan exceeded expectations when meeting deadlines and kept his cool when plans would massively shift, as would my requests from him. An absolute pleasure to work with - I would hire him in a second and that says a lot coming from the world of high growth and competitive startups."

"I’ve known Dylan for a few years now. Recently, I needed branding work done for a side business I’m pursuing. I was nervous because I had never approached a design project before, but Dylan made the process easy and comprehensive. He listened to my ideas, and came up with a logo and theme that fit my needs perfectly."
