Hello, I’m Dan––
A person who’s passionate about making meaningful digital products and inspirational marketing campaigns through design.
I’ve learned that the most satisfying projects have two key elements that make all the sweat and tears worthwhile: (1) producing incredible work and (2) working with incredible people.
Throughout my 15-year career as a creative, I have gained valuable experience working in both in-house and agency settings. As the Group Design Manager for Citigroup's internal incubator, Studio, I had the privilege of contributing to digital products that drive economic growth for individuals, businesses, and communities. I also had the chance to explore cutting-edge financial technology trends, including cryptocurrency. Prior to joining Studio, I worked at prestigious agencies in California and New York for several years. Most recently, I served as a Design Director at Kettle, a digital agency where I led and managed design teams that created award-winning digital products and campaigns for notable brands.
My experience working alongside passionate and well-informed peers was truly enjoyable. Moreover, having the opportunity to grow, foster, and mentor individuals has been one of the most rewarding parts of the job as a manager. As I look to the future, I am in search of a role that places culture and excellence at the forefront.
