About Steve Cross

A detail-orientated, deadline-driven professional with extensive knowledge of design and technology, gained in agency environments, freelance landscapes and not-for-profit sectors. Develops solutions and leads change through solid analytical and creative problem-solving skills. Recognized for being passionate, thinking outside the box and leading by example. Welcomes challenges and new responsibilities with enthusiasm and creativity. Competencies contributing to career success include an over-the-top attention to detail and an avant-garde approach to telling stories and communicating brands. My career as a creative professional began modestly: designing flyers, business cards, logos and other corporate communications for friends and local small businesses. Attending college exposed me to the pre-press printing process, desktop publishing and a broader creative community involving artists of all disciplines. This exposure fostered a deep desire to learn, communicate and tell stories in unique and innovative ways. Over the years I was granted opportunities at agencies, studios, production companies and not-for-profit organizations to develop brands, entertain, teach and unlock the potential in others through multimedia production, websites, film, publications, digital signs and social media. Staying on top of technology and design trends, accompanied with a passion for helping and understanding others, have been the driving forces behind my career as a creative professional.
