Justin SCott

ART DIRECTOR | GRAPHIC DESIGNER

I'm a creative, through and through. I’m not saying that just because med school sounded hard. I truly have a passion for bringing brands to life. As an award-winning designer and art director, I have been fortunate enough to work with amazing people and brands. These experiences have forged my skills as a strategic and message driven designer. 

When I’m not obsessing over pixels I’m exploring the nooks and crannies of Detroit with my fiancée, impulsively delving into my next creative hobby, or writing my latest letterbox review (spoiler: I always like the movie).
