Chris Young CGDSee my portfolio at chrisyoungdesign.com

I’m a versatile Art Director and Senior Designer with years of agency experience seeking a full-time position that puts my diverse skills and creative design background to use.

I enjoy working in a collaborative environment and have a passion for design and enjoy seeing that creative vision translated into different mediums; be it web/digital, interactive, print, or environmental signage.

I’m a strategic designer having worked with international brands including Champion Sportswear, Ryders Eyewear, Windset Farms and MacNeil Bikes, to name just a few. I have plenty of experience with large projects with extended timelines and phased deliverables. I’m very comfortable juggling priorities and overseeing a team of designers.

I’m a CGD™ certified member of the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada, and was profiled on the BC Chapter’s website – you can see the interview by visiting this link.

Chris is a remarkably versatile senior designer, comprising an expert blend of creative and technical depth that is rarely encountered among present-day graphic artists. Conceptual development to creative and production, Chris brings a thorough and inspired professionalism to every project he works on. From graphic identities and brand collateral, to publications, environments and web interfaces, Chris blends just the right combination of strategy with method—and delivers winning creative every time. Really enjoy working with Chris!

– Steve Gallagher Principal and CEO, Tugboat Group

I’ve had the pleasure of working together with Chris on a number projects in the past and it was a fantastic experience. Not only is Chris a passionate, talented, enthusiastic individual – he is one of those rare, motivated Art Director/Senior Designers who truly ‘gets’ the creative process.

Collaborating with Chris is easy. His ability to push project boundaries or take control when required ultimately resulted in delivering captivating creative solutions that far exceeded the original brief.

Combine that with his never-ceasing attention to detail and his dynamic no-nonsense approach and you have the making of a truly memorable experience, one I’d strongly recommend.

– Justin Hnatiuk Creative Director, Tugboat Group and Latitude Agency

Chris is a rare individual that possesses both creative and management expertise. With extremely limited direction Chris delivers on mark every time regardless of how many moving parts he must deal with.
