Susan Bachman’s Summary
I'm the person in charge of the way things look at Market Arts Creative. So far, life has served-up some really great experiences like graduating with a Fine Arts degree from the University of Michigan, building my craft at boutique ad agencies, and even running my own design firm.
So what if I'm just a little bit obsessive about the way things look. I'm also passionate about the way things sound. If I do say so myself, I've got a knack for cutting copy down to size, saving those extra words for when the world runs out of adjectives. Of course, creative ideas don't travel in straight lines. That's why digression is good and tangents are worth the time. Happily, we use both to get the job done at Market Arts Creative.
Susan Bachman’s Specialties:
You know what they say, one picture is worth...just don't tell my copywriting partner. Whether I'm designing a branded web platform or editing a video, I love creating the visual shorthand that says so much without saying a word.
