Howdy!
James Harrison here! I’m a multidisciplinary Design Director / Creative Director specializing in branding, art direction, illustration and typography. I’ve been creating and maintaining brands for clients large and small for nearly two decades, and leading teams that do the same for about half that time. I currently live and work in Dallas TX… and yes, it’s hot here. When I’m not glued to my desk cranking out award winning creative solutions, you can find me at the ballpark in Arlington pounding dollar hot dogs and participating in Creed sing-alongs with the best fan base in all of Major League Baseball. Think that just about covers all of the important stuff. If you haven’t already, please have a look through my work, and if you have a project or position you think I’d be a good fit for, or just wanna chat, HMU!
Skills:
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, XD, Figma, Word, Keynote, and if you put a gun to my head, PowerPoint (but it’s gotta be a pretty big gun). Also nunchucks, bow hunting and computer hacking (and if you got that last joke, then congratulations; you and me are now best friends).
