Samuel Akintoye — Senior Designer

About

Design that moves people and markets.

I'm a results-driven Senior Graphic Designer specialising in visual storytelling, conversion-focused campaigns, and cohesive brand identities. My work bridges the gap between aesthetics and strategy — every deliverable is both visually compelling and commercially effective.

With experience spanning Austin, London, Lagos, and Accra, I bring an international perspective to every brief. Open to remote opportunities across the US, UK, and Canada.
