CHRIS
ISAIAH
CONCEPTUAL ART DIRECTIOR
I am a Multitalented Creative that actively challenges what it means to be an Art Director and Designer.
I am a person willing to help others, a woman who leads with care, and a co-worker willing to help the team even if it means staying a little late.
I help brands and agencies humanize creative briefs and step far outside their comfort zone to develop timeless campaigns.
