Tim Schifle does so much more than just design graphics — he takes half-formed client ideas and transforms them into engaging and cohesive branding. Tim’s work helps a brand to tell its story, evoke feeling, and draw in customers and clients.

I am always impressed by just how quickly Tim creates fresh ideas with fabulous execution. To me, it might as well be magic. Even though I know to always expect excellent work, I still find myself actually saying, “Wow! That’s amazing!”

Tim brings great ideas to the table — but almost more importantly, he listens. He creates an environment of partnership where ideas flow and flourish.

10/10 – would work with again and 100% recommend!
