Providing Graphic Design,Web Design, Art Direction, Advertising Design and Copywriting services in the Chicago; Rockford, IL; Milwaukee and Madison, WI area

Hello, I am Ray Messina, an award winning art director, graphic designer, web designer, and copywriter residing in Rockford, IL (just northwest of Chicago, and south of Madison, WI). I have thirteen years of experience developing successful advertising, marketing, branding and communications materials.

Design is creativity with a purpose. Whether it's a brochure, flyer, logo, web site, poster or advertising piece, I strive to deliver a final product that is as effective as it is beautiful. This is why I begin each project by taking the time to understand your goals and objectives and developing a tailor-made visual concept and creative strategy that will get the desired results. I focus on creating clean, elegant design and writing concise, evocative copy. I have a balanced mix of technical skill and creative talent and am equally comfortable working on print or web design projects.

I am always eager to take on new challenges, be they in the form of freelance projects, or exciting employment offers. I invite you to take a look at my portfolio,review my résumé and contact me about how I can help you achieve your business goals.
