Jenya Spektor

Senior Art Director

I'm an experienced and accomplished digital graphic designer who's work has won acclaim from FWA, the One Show and the Cannes Cyber Lion committee.

Perhaps equally significant, I know how to get a bunch of friends into the best Russian bathhouse in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, complimentary round of drinks included.

I guess that's to be expected, considering I emigrated here from the former Soviet Union at the tender age of 17. That's when I began my artistic endeavors, working first for an architectural firm and, subsequently, at a number of well-known design shops.

Along the way I became proficient in everything from free-handing sketching to screen printing. My passion, however, continues to be designing for the digital space in the form of banners, sites, applications and displays. I've even taught web design at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

Nowadays, I listen to amazingly obscure and wonderful music and appear very interested when my wife, the accountant, is talking about something 'important.'
