Testimonials

I've had the opportunity to work with Joe twice in my career. Once as colleagues on the Marketing Team at Auvik, and now as a client in my role as Director, Marketing at evolutionQ. Joe's ability to translate complex technical ideas into vibrant and interesting design concepts gives our team a great advantage.

Joe is responsive, helpful, and patient with us when we are in the midst of the iterative process. His guidance has helped us develop our common look and feel and create materials that we can be proud of.

For over ten years in working with Joe, we’ve seen his creative problem solving, his design integrity, and a willingness to go above and beyond our needs—and more importantly, the needs of our authors. From working on the design layout of the magazine to communicating with cover artists, he has remained committed, engaged, and flexible. He has worked on tight deadlines when required with an attitude of wanting the best outcome for all. He is, simply, great to work with.

Simply put, Joe is an absolute gem. Joe was the magic behind our visual brand, creating stunning and impactful designs that really brought our projects to life.

Not only is Joe super talented with a keen eye for detail and a knack for bringing our brand to live across multiple different asset and platform types, but he’s also a joy to work with. He brings a great vibe to the team, always communicates effectively, and is super collaborative, making the entire design process smooth and enjoyable.

I hired Joe for both design and photography work during my time at the Accelerator Centre. He consistently delivered great work that helped us communicate the value proposition of programs, show off our facilities and connect with our audience. Plus, he's just about the nicest person you could hope to collaborate with. I've recommended Joe to others on numerous occasions and wouldn't hesitate to do so again.

Beyond Joe's fantastic photography, he is amazing to work with! I had the pleasure of working with Joe on a Volvo Moments collaboration campaign where he captured the 2023 C40 Volvo in his trademark architectural photography. Joe is thoughtful and creative in his photography work.

Joe was the Senior Graphic Designer for the incredible marketing team at Auvik for 5 years -- and I had the privilege of working with him for 3 of these years. During his tenure, he expanded and evolved our brand, ensured a strong and consistent visual identity for the company, and spearheaded design for a (very!) wide range of initiatives. On a personal note, Joe is a genuine individual and a true team player. He never failed to deliver and was an invaluable asset to our team.

I highly recommend Joe as an experienced graphic designer. Joe’s clear communication and quick email responses made it easy to collaborate on a recent layout project. He captured the essence of the brand seamlessly and came up with smart visual solutions that enhanced the content. I was impressed by Joe’s openness to feedback and his ability to turn suggestions into improvements. I look forward to our next opportunity to collaborate.
