brand experience:

Simply, Cole is one of the best designers I've worked with. He has great ideas, a sophisticated style, a fine eye for detail and he *never* misses a deadline. Over the years, we've built a formidable team, working for varied clients in widely different sectors – and whether it's spec work to win a huge pitch (which we've done, multiple times) or live client work with global brands, he elevates the work at every stage.

Cole's work is so good, that I've brought him in to four agencies in various forms. Each time, he's brought something new, added to his skill base and grown as an exceptional creative. I'm most excited about the work he'll continue to bring to the table, as I know he's only going to get better.

I rarely come across designers who are as talented as Cole. I hired him three years ago when Mad Designs just launched. It only took a few months before I realized that Cole was more than just a designer — he was the key asset to our company. Cole understands the business at a very high level and was able to produce designs that were better than anyone else in the industry.

Cole’s drive and determination helped get us where we are today, and we couldn’t have done it without him. I consider him and his work to be the reason Mad Designs is so successful, I can’t recommend a more talented individual!
