Testimonial

I can’t recommend Don’s services more highly. If I had to sum up why my experience with Don was amazing, I would say that it was because he worked with our budget, totally captured our vision, and created works of art beyond our expectations. He was flexible, timely, and produced extremely high-quality work. Work with Don and you’ll know what I’m talking about.

Don does an amazing job, and I cannot recommend him and his work highly enough. We have worked on multiple projects since 2010 including benefit invitations, signs and banners, cards, and annual reports - Don is creative, thoughtful, detailed, easy to work with, responsive, efficient and thorough. He shares input on concepts and content to be sure it all makes sense and is represented clearly, and the outcome is both beautiful and compelling. Don brings experience, passion, and excellence to all he does, and is a delightful partner.

Don at Kye Creative goes beyond graphic designer as an excellent visual communicator. He elevates the class of your brand to the next level and makes it stand out among the crowd. His attention to detail and professionalism set him apart from other designers and agencies we’ve worked with.

I really enjoyed my experience working with Don on the branding and image for my company. He was very thorough and asked a lot of great questions to better understand what I was trying to accomplish and my vision for the company. He presented me with several options and together we refined those down to my final choice. We continue to use Don on a variety of projects and are very happy with quality of his work, and he always delivers it on time. I would highly recommend Don to any organization that is trying to build their image and brand in the marketplace.

Don is a throwback to when designers were craftsman . . . carefully planning from concept thru completion, laying out timelines, working in tandem with his clients to extract the information needed to clearly communicate the messaging. Don is a dream for any vendor to work with as he always comes through with the files on the dates and times promised and as a bonus, the files are right the first time which is a rarity! If reliability wasn’t enough, Don has a joyful soul and works with integrity. An easy recommendation for anyone considering hiring a design firm.
