My name is Scott Gross born and raised in Kansas, I hold hard work ethics close to heart. I combine creativity with a clear perspective and calm approach to solve my client’s communication challenges. I hold 32 years of experience in design, which includes art direction, brand identity, and illustration. Currently I am the Art Director of the University Marketing Department at Fort Hays State University. I find a deep passion for elevating and engaging those around me and draw inspiration from people, history, and old ephemeral design elements. I know what it takes to conceptualize an idea, utilize the creative minds around me, and how to work hard toward basic common goals.
