2009 was the year of logo/identity for Brand Design — specifically in financial services. Companies know the importance of communicating their core values and want to have a logo/identity supporting and strengthening that brand. In an industry reeling from tremendous change in the last year and a half, it's critical to tell your clients what you stand for and have all levels of the firm's communications support and strengthen that message — from the Powerpoint^® pitchbook to website.

I worked with Jeanie Ulicny on a new identity, pitchbook and stationery system for Emery Howard, an investment management firm in San Mateo, California.

Brand Design created a logo for Willow Grove Advisors — a new investment management company in Berkeley, California founded by Keley Petersen.

Michelle Morton, president and CEO of Pacific American Securities (PAS), headquartered in San Diego, CA, hired us to create a new logo/identity for PAS as well as a redesign of their website.
