Weston Dean Sign Design

Oldies Music
It may sound strange, but when I was about 11 years old, I would watch an infomercial over and over again because I loved the music.

It’s hard to believe that a little over a decade ago, I only had a handful of samples of my work. Today, I’m proud to have a full portfolio with well over 400 projects on display on my website.

Emerge Counseling Logo Design
