Part of my incredible team at PicoBrew. I'm sitting on the floor, back row from left to right: Ryan James, Sam Grim, Derek Vander Griend, and Selena Goodwin.
(ok) Will Hays
Over the past 20+ years I've had the pleasure of working with a variety of people from the largest brands in the world to the smallest start-ups. My first 10 years were spent in Atlanta, which is where I'm from.
In 2007 I moved to Seattle, working for myself until 2013 when I accepted an offer from the ad agency Wexley School for Girls. After Wexley I was hired as the design director for the start-up product company PicoBrew.
At PicoBrew I built a team of 10+ in-house and contract creatives. As all start-ups are, it was a tremendous amount of work managing all creative from the digital space including all UI/visual design for the website as well as their new app-- to the physical which included package design, manuals, PB brand, etc. My team and I also managed all creative for marketing and advertising working closely with our sales team as well as additional ad agencies. On top of all that we raised almost $8 million in only 4 crowd funding campaigns.
I'm now back to working for myself enjoying the new variety of clients. If you need more info on my work history here’s my LinkedIn.
