Gage Burke is the Senior Art Director at Brand Society, a small but mighty New Orleans agency. Up north, he worked with brands like Bounty, Charmin, Puffs, Greenies, Windex, Kroger, Corona, and ExxonMobil. But seven years ago, he and his wife quit their jobs, sold their house, and finally moved to New Orleans.

With two decades of design experience, Gage now works on some of the strongest heritage brands in the Crescent City — including the City herself, for which he and his team designed the official tourism logo and brand system last year. He’s won some awards, which is nice. He gets to work with great people and clients, which is even nicer. And the fact that he gets to do it in his favorite place on Earth is nicest of all.

Gage has always loved helping young creatives get started in their careers, and he’s excited to share a few of the lessons he’s learned along the way (especially if he can convince more of them to continue growing their talents here in New Orleans).
