GRAYSON MUELLER
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
In my career, I have been lucky enough to work with motivated teams that expected the best from themselves to achieve success. At Allied Air, I created assets that drove marketing initiatives and helped propel the company to grow year over year. I joined GT-Lite during a pivotal product launch with our largest customer. I developed packaging, informational documents, shot product photography, and created how-to installation videos for 9 new products. I also built displays and designed banners for a series of presentations on these products within a short timeline. Since being hired, my efforts have helped GT-Lite make over $30 million dollars in annual profits.
NEWEST ARRIVALS
REVENGE
OF THE VANQUISHED
BEER DESIGN
This was the first of a challenge to myself to help round out my portfolio called "Rando Brando." I use a random word generator to come up with a noun and three adjectives as a prompt to create a new brand or product.
The prompts for this round were: alcohol, defeated, temporary, and informal.
The phrase "Revenge of the defeated" was the first thing to come to mind. Ideas about fallen warriors from my history books took center stage, but that didn't fill the "informal" section of a prompt. Then I thought, "What is more informal than a beer?" It's the quintessential attribute people will use when they want to appear down to earth (see every country song ever written).
