About
Hi, I’m Kerry Meier. I’m a design veteran who thrives at the intersection of advertising, packaging, print collateral, retail display, environmental design, photo art direction, and digital media. I’ve built and led cross-disciplinary teams, presented concepts to clients, and taught design, always focusing on clear strategy, cohesive visuals, and measurable results. My experience spans high-volume imaging for Hallmark, art direction for Payless photoshoots, and retail spaces for brands like DreamWorks, Nickelodeon, and Walmart.
I believe great design comes from collaboration and curiosity—mentoring designers, exploring new materials and 3D technologies, and turning ideas into compelling experiences across platforms and environments.
