About me

AboutMe3

Life consists of different elements, and sometimes these elements are so random that we cannot make sense of them. It takes a deep understanding and a creative thought process to arrange these elements together to convey meaning to different people.

My name is Johan Dominguez, and I have over 15 years of experience in leading the creative design aspects of various companies, both small and large. As Creative Director, I have the knack and practical ability to redefine the look, feel, and concepts of a brand from a customer-centric position. I also possess the ability to develop and establish the reputation and voice of a brand as well as implement overarching creative direction for major banding initiatives.

During my career, I have been privileged to be the founder and CEO of 3 companies. All these companies share a common goal, which is to elevate branding to an entirely innovative level. I acquired new skills along the journey, some of the skills worthy of mention are; business development, familiarity in engineering, operations, real estate, manufacturing, transportation, as well as AR/VR development. 

What distinguishes me among creative directors is my ability to understand technology and introduce it to the creative design and development process. For someone tech-savvy, I evolve to learn new technology to make the creative process a more immersive one. Hence, I have skills in game development, game engines, mobile application development, website development, augmented reality, virtual reality, and everything that has to do with software development. My duty is to take concepts and ideas and create a visual representation of their feasibility before the project begins, saving companies on costs, workforce, and material.

My diverse background spans visual merchandising, imagery, in-store experience, digital marketing services, photography, production, and post-production, as well as graphic design/content creation. With my business intelligence, I can create a perfect blend between developing creative designs and accurately portraying the company to the public in the way that it aligns with the values they crave for.
