“I don’t see myself as an artist. I work with artists and collaborate with them, but then it becomes graphic design. It’s not an art. I’m a graphic designer.” — Vaughn Oliver

ABOUT ME

I knew I was on the right path for graphic design when I went to a lecture featuring Vaughn Oliver at the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles in 1994. Everything he said made sense and struck a chord with me - with how I saw art, typography images and patterns. I’ve been a designer and I have loved all things design - ever since.

 

Hello, I’m Dyna Mendoza, an experienced Creative Director with a career built in high-performing, high-profile media environments. I’ve led and contributed to design initiatives at Bleacher Report, Shutterfly, AOL Time Warner, and CNET Networks.

I specialize in creating compelling visual storytelling and user-centered digital experiences that drive engagement and deliver measurable impact. My most rewarding work has involved cross-functional collaboration to elevate brand presence, strengthen user engagement, and build loyalty through strategic, thoughtfully executed design.

I’m passionate about staying at the forefront of the industry, connecting with fellow creatives, and continuing to grow within an evolving media landscape.
