I've spent 15+ years doing work I genuinely love โ€” helping brands look their best and tell their stories well. From agencies to in-house teams to running my own studio, Massini Design, I've had the chance to work on just about every kind of design challenge there is. That range is something I'm proud of. I know how agencies think, how in-house teams operate, and how to be a trusted creative partner, whether I'm leading a team or delivering final files solo. I bring that perspective to every project. My work spans brand identity, art direction, packaging, trade show environments, print, social, web, and presentations. I've had the pleasure of working with clients like OtterBox, Hunter Douglas, WeightWatchers, and Pfizer โ€” and I bring the same care and attention to every project, big or small. If you're looking for a designer who's collaborative, adaptable, and genuinely invested in getting it right โ€” let's talk. ๐Ÿ“ Portfolio: massinidesign.myportfolio.comโ€ฆ
