Hello.

My name is Wendy Schmidt and I am an award winning graphic designer and art director living in Toronto, Canada.

I specialize in print and digital design – including corporate and internal communications, branding and identity, advertising, direct mail, employee recognition programs and illustration.

Since graduating from the graphic design program at the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD University) in 1993, I have worked for both large advertising agencies and small design studios, and I co-ran my own design studio – seesaw. Along the way I’ve created award-winning designs and materials for a wide variety of industries – from financial services, pharmaceutical, automotive and telecom companies, to government and not-for-profit agencies, and even a federal political campaign. I’ve also developed a large network of partners and suppliers to get the job done on time, on budget, and to meet my clients’ needs.

Whether I’m working on a large branding project, or a one-off poster or annual report, the part of the design process I love the most is getting to know my clients and gaining a deep understanding of their business. This is key to creating the design and communication materials that will meet their business objectives and bring them success.
