ENDORSEMENTS
Brandon is everything you want and need in a designer or art director. He’s easy to talk to and work with. He can take vague direction and make magic. He cares about his team and coworkers. And he can produce UGC that’s fun and engaging!
I’ve worked with him for a few years and I’ve always enjoyed his ideas, talent, and energy. If you are lucky enough to work with him on any project you’ll be in good hands. Brandon would make a great addition to any team. As a leader or producer. His abilities are constantly growing with the market and I’ve learned a lot from him personally. I would hire him again in any future role if our paths cross again.

You don't always find artists who are experts at communicating business goals online. Brandon is one of those. He's got an expert grasp of the fundamentals of solid visual communication. He understands the balance between artistic beauty and business communication. I saw him use these skills to turn some pretty basic eCommerce messages into beautiful works that delighted customers. Additionally, when he was given the task of coordinating the work of several other visual designers on our team he rose to the challenge. He took the lead in communicating our larger creative vision to make sure that the individual work stayed within spec. It's both his experience in the trenches and his creative vision that help establish him as a respected leader on creative teams.

Sr User Experience Manager for Ria Digital in Denver, CO
I have had the honor to know and work with Brandon Willett for over a year now. Brandon is a phenomenal artist and designer and I was glad to have had him working on one of the teams at Lowes.com. Brandon has consistently displayed impressive professionalism, judgment and ability. With a cool head, he is able to keep those around him focused on their work as a peer leader, while driving toward a creative direction that meets the business needs. Living in the part of the User Experience playground that can be the most elusive at times, he has a very strong grasp of the impact visual and interactive design can drive. His work product was always professional, thorough, and delivered on time. I consider Brandon an asset to any employer, with a fantastic foundation for leadership within the creative and UX disciplines.
