Hey I’m Colleen, associate creative director at GUT in LA.

__

I have over a decade of experience crafting visually interesting solutions for my clients’ business problems. I’ve enjoyed working in both expansive global agencies and small startups. On global, regional, and local brands. I’ve created everything from brand platform ecosystems to a simple typographic gif. k, enough of that.

When I’m not working, I love riding my motorcycle, walking around LA, having bonfires and beers, reading the newspaper, and smoking cigars. I’m also into nerdy shit - like personal finance, ancient greek coins, and urban planning.
