About

Dave Derby

Creative Director | Art Director | Storyboard Artist | Illustrator

Dave is an enthusiastic, open-minded creative partner who’s idea-driven work engages the hearts and minds of the target audience - growing a client’s business and building brand equity.

Throughout his career, Dave has received much national and international acclaim—from garnering the Gold Clio to winning the Best of Show in the Brass Ring Entertainment Awards. He was also recognized by Art Direction Magazine as one of the top professionals in the Advertising Design field.

More important, though, than the respect his work has garnered, are the results his work has produced: 30% spike in advertised products for Rubbermaid. 44% increase in sales for Dirt Devil, elevating it to the number position in the category. 40 year high in passenger traffic at Akron-Canton Airport. 1M increase in visitors to Cleveland in first year of campaign, and an additional 1M visitors in year two.
