Design For Distinction.
[ DEREK MASSEY /// CREATIVE DIRECTOR & DESIGN LEADER ]
For 25 years, I’ve built a career leading brand identity, packaging design, and omni-channel visual execution. As co-owner and creative director at PXL Graphics, I partner with brands ranging from global category leaders to fast-growing startups. I specialize in end-to-end creative direction—bridging physical packaging systems, high-end commercial photography, and custom digital storefronts (Shopify and Squarespace).
