Hakki Yemeniciler Career Biography
About Me
I was born in Turkey, lived in Germany, studied in Switzerland, went to college and currently live and work in USA. From drawing on napkins in perspective at the young age of 4 to branding big companies later in my career, my creative journey has been a pure obsession with design. I'm passionate about understanding people and use design to blend audience needs with the "big idea" behind a brand. I believe that communicating even the most complex message is possible with the right visuals.
What I do
I'm a seasoned and award-winning agency creative with over 10 years of experience. As a passionate leader with a proven track record for translating complex ideas into cohesive and innovative solutions for the web, mobile platforms and print, I bring cross-cultural vision and perspective to my work and build strong client relationships.
