About
I'm a Senior Visual Designer and Art Director with over a decade of experience creating digital experiences and design systems for global brands across tech, retail, healthcare, and consumer goods. My work spans UI/UX design, motion graphics, social media, print design, and B2B & B2C marketing. I thrive on balancing strategic thinking with execution, whether I'm crafting brand identities or designing end-to-end digital experiences.
I approach design as a problem-solving discipline. I'm a hands-on learner who moves quickly from concept to execution, and I believe the best solutions emerge from curiosity, collaboration, and a willingness to iterate.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my partner and our cat, cooking, fly fishing, rollerblading, doing race car stuff, and taking photos.

What People Are Saying
“Dylan is an exceptional designer, person, and collaborator. He is a brilliant creative and incredibly thoughtful about the work he is doing. As a designer, he could simply design content and leave it at that but he is a true thought partner and thinks critically about the content he is working with, pressure tests ideas, and flags things that don't quite connect. He's strategic and astute.”
Former Stakeholder
“Simply put: Dylan is outstanding. He was able to take a somewhat vague brief and crystalize it into exactly what we were looking for: A clean, professional aesthetic that was on-brand without being boring and predictable. What's more, he was able to explain his decisions in ways that were clear and well thought-out. It's also worth noting that he was able to do all of this on an aggressive timeline and budget. I'd work with Dylan again in a moment. He's fantastic.”
Marketing Director
“I really enjoyed learning from and working with Dylan!…Throughout the project, Dylan's supportive approach and willingness to assist others made our work both productive and enjoyable. He was also great at reflecting on the potential uses for GenAI in the creative process, and sharing tips he had learned along the way.”
Former Co-worker“Not only was he able to provide us with multiple designs that matched the desired look/feel of the deliverable but he also helped us brainstorm and push the envelope of what we believed to be possible in such a short amount of time. I was truly blow away with how quickly he was able to provide various design templates based on our recommendations and iterate as needed…Looking forward to working with him again soon!”
Marketing Lead
“Dylan was a pleasure to work with! Dylan went above and beyond for our team, helping us accommodate a big ask from our client on a short timeline. Dylan requires limited direction as well and grasps concepts quickly and brings them to life in a clear, visual manner. Would love to work more with Dylan moving forward.”
