I Love My Job!

I love that projects come in all shapes and sizes - and that each one is a unique representation of the creative process. I am inspired by that process every time I produce a project from start to finish. I love that a font can change the mood of a page or create an emotion much like the spoken word. I love that an image can engage the audience influencing a new way of thinking. And the dance that the fonts, the words and the images make is often quite magical. As a seasoned art director and visual designer, each project is approached using individualized, creative thinking to create sophisticated, targeted graphics that help make it appealing and marketable. Customized production teams can be built to fit a client’s specific needs and objectives, including copy writing and editing, photography and illustration.

Working as an independent designer for over 10 years, I’ve had a variety of experiences and opportunities. Most recently, I’ve been passionate about my culinary clients, helping to develop and grow several small privately owned companies across the U.S. There is nothing more exciting than to be a part of a success story! Based in Dallas, I previously spent 10 years at Neiman Marcus, art directing fashion and home décor. Then I went on to become a Creative Director for a home décor company specializing in direct mail retail. I’m organized, detail oriented and will deliver projects on time and on budget.

"Wendy is outstanding to work with. She is personable, fun and completes requested projects right on time. Her sense of style and creative abilities have taken our catalog to the next level. Highly recommended!"

– Charisse Lawrence, Director of Marketing, Amana Meat Shop & Smokehouse
