Ed Schiavo is the consummate communications professional. He and his Team created some very compelling ways of bringing our client's brands to life. Ed has a high design aesthetic which helped contribute to our clients achieving greater brand awareness while enhancing their overall reputation. He helped to craft compelling experiences for several of our clients and collaborated with us in a seamless way. We engaged Ed to create a corporate identity package, collateral design system, UI/UX and website design, and other design deliverables. We have been very satisfied with the entire process. He was prompt in delivering new ideas and was helpful in answering our questions. He has been outstanding to work with from our first contact to the projects completion. I will not hesitate to engage Ed again and I recommend him highly.

I have worked with Ed for over four years on two major branding campaigns for my company, in addition to ongoing marketing and sales work. Ed is by far the best creative designer with whom I have worked. He always developed a deep understanding of our company's strategy and the market positioning. Then he combined that with an empathetic approach that always resulted in work that connects with human emotions while executing against the intent of the marketing strategy. I highly recommend Ed's work!
