STAR WARS CONNOISSEUR
Hi! I’m Derek.
I’m a graphic designer and creative lead based in Salt Lake City, Utah.
I love bringing ideas to life in ways that truly connect with people. For me, design isn’t just about making things look good; it’s about telling stories and solving real problems.
I’m passionate about creating an environment where everyone feels supported to do their best work. I thrive on collaborating, pushing ideas further, and finding ways to create designs that are both interesting and effective for the team and the brand.
Let me show you what i’VE got.
My work spans a little bit of everything.
From building bold brand identities and
creating playful illustrations to producing thoughtful fine art pieces and clean, effective design solutions. Whether it’s crafting a full brand system, designing campaign graphics,
or bringing a fun character to life, I love exploring different styles and mediums to tell stories that connect with people. No matter the project, I focus on creating work that feels intentional, clear, and full of personality.
