ABOUT ME
KAIT MEISSNER
I'm an Art Director with over ten years experience, focusing on brand identity and marketing design. I've worked closely with various national brands, Rutgers University Athletics, University of California Athletics, Philadelphia Flyers, and most recently Capital One Partnerships, in order to build their brand stories. Throughout my career, I've developed and honed my skills in conceptualization, branding, and team management across different industries.
My unique background in sports design shaped my design philosophy in may ways, one being my love for storytelling. My exceptional design frameworks help in creating visuals that tell a deep story underlying in every project. I've found a story to be at the core of every strong business pitch, brand campaign, and powerful design. This skill spans further than just the sport industry and I utilize it daily in my most recent position as AD for Capital One. I have created promotional materials using striking branding and dynamic digital techniques. Alongside those, I developed powerful visuals that connect with the audience even on an emotional level.
I am happiest when working with a company that strives to redefine creativity and pushes the boundaries of what is expected. Whether you're looking for audience engagement, enhanced brand perception or just someone to explore the unexplored, I am confident that the combination of my skills for strategic art direction and love for powerful narratives will be of great benefit to you.
Extraordinary works start when we decide to work together.
Life outside of work
My hobbies
As an Art Director, I find that inspiration comes from all facets of life. My hobbies are integral to my creative process and fuel my imagination:
Traveling: Exploring new cultures and landscapes broadens my perspective and sparks innovative ideas for my work.
Guitar: Whether I'm experimenting with a new song or playing one of my favorite songs, the process of playing music helps me think more creatively and stay inspired.
Drawing: Whether sketching concepts or creating personal art, drawing keeps my creative skills sharp and helps me visualize ideas more clearly.
Creative Writing: Crafting stories and exploring narratives deepens my understanding of storytelling, an essential element of my design work.
Sailing: The serenity of being on the water provides a refreshing escape and inspires a sense of adventure and exploration in my creative endeavors.
