About

"Hi, I’m Gray Andrus-Merriner, a creative and passionate leader who thrives when collaborating with in-house teams to drive growth. I bring hands-on experience in visual merchandising, graphic design, and brand development, with a track record of delivering compelling campaigns and cohesive identities.

Currently, I’ve led client and visual merchandising initiatives at a sustainable clothing retailer since May 2022, developed brand assets for FirNW as a student-led agency, and previously stewarded heritage brand image at Pendleton. I’m seeking roles that combine design, strategy, and team leadership to create meaningful customer experiences."
