Hey friend– I'm Cherisse. Based in Toronto, I'm a Creative Lead / Sr. Art Director who loves telling stories. For the past decade, I've worked at advertising and digital agencies in Toronto, NYC and London, UK on brands such as Prudential Financial, PGA Tour, Virgin Media and The Globe & Mail. Here's a mix of projects I've enjoyed creating.

THE SHORT

• Art Director, specializing in UI Design
• Maker of short films
• 10 years of creative agency experience
• Writer of inspo and content

THE LONG

I've always found excitement in creating ideas, stories and experiences. Since graduating from OCAD University in 2007 with a Bachelor of Design in Advertising, I've worked as a hands-on Art Director at creative agencies in Toronto, NYC and London, UK; helping brands engage audiences through visual narratives. I've overseen and mentored creative teams, and have helped brands of all kinds and sizes evolve their businesses.

Though integrated, my expertise lies in digital design and video. In 2009, in order to create better experiences for devices and delve deeper into how tech is evolving, I studied Web Development at Ryerson University, and moved into a specialty in UI/UX Design. In 2019, I returned to Ryerson to obtain a Certificate in Film Studies and produced a couple short films. I'm thrilled about producing, writing and directing more fiction and non-fiction content in the near future.


After 8 years working abroad, I've recently returned to Toronto. My output ranges from concept creation and creative leadership, to design for all media / platforms. I'm particularly passionate about collaborating with, learning from, and empowering others– in life and on projects of all kinds. I love discovering cities by bike, shooting photos at night, practicing movement and having great conversations with new friends. With that said, I'd love to learn about and create with you. Please say hello!
