Hi, I’m Steve Menard, a brand and marketing designer who’s been working independently with clients since 1995. Under my brand name Design DXM, I partner with small businesses, startups, non-profits, local government, and community organizations to create clear, polished brand communications across a wide range of industries—from telecommunications and aviation to hi-technology, fitness, entertainment, and marketing agencies.
I approach each project by first understanding your objectives, audience, brand guidelines, and content needs, then translating that into solutions built on strong visual design, typography, and hierarchy. I handle concept through production, revisions, and final delivery while keeping communication clear and meeting agreed deadlines. I’m especially comfortable building brand consistency from the ground up through rebrands and identity work for companies such as Axsera, CASP Aerospace, and Interior Concrete Coatings.
