Hi there, I'm Chris Rushing, an Emmy award-award winning creative director and multidisciplinary design leader hailing from Georgia and now based in Seattle, WA. I've been in the game for over 19 years, working on branding, digital, and marketing for big names like Google, BuzzFeed, Citi-Bank, AT&T, CVS, GoDaddy and more. I love tackling unique challenges and believe that innovation and collaboration are the keys to success. I'm all about building authentic relationships with my collaborators, and I've got plenty of experience to show for it. I've worked in-house, at agencies, and as a freelancer, with renowned agencies like Mother NY, Huge, Critical Mass and Ogilvy. I also co-founded a social design event series called Draft & Draw in NYC. I'm proud to say that I've won an Emmy and a Webby for my work while at Time Warner. I continued that winning streak as Brand Creative Director at GoDaddy, where I helped to lead the charge on the company's global rebrand in 2020. We had a bold vision to shift the global economy towards life-fulfilling independent ventures, and I worked closely with teams across the board to make that vision a reality. At BuzzFeed, I built the brand design team from the ground up and created a digital style guide and asset library that was used company-wide. I also partnered with real estate teams to bring the brand to life in offices across NYC and LA. As a freelance creative director and art director, I bring my skills to a variety of projects across a range of mediums, providing consultation, direction, design, and illustration. If you're looking to create something amazing, let's do it together. https://chrisrushing.com
