Stunning, inventive, professional, and imaginative are just a few of the words I have heard in relation to his work. I truly believe that his work has helped us sell more product than we could ever have imagined in our inaugural year. Top this all off with a fantastic person to work with, I could not ask for anything more.
Brady Dahmer Design is a highly creative design firm that was dedicated to creative problem solving with a unique execution that embodies the Holt Renfrew Style. His design helped to create educational tools that communicated the selling standards of Holt Renfrew to our employees. He truly had a clear understanding of our brand and our message and the level of excellence that Holt Renfrew represents.
Brady has been instrumental in connecting the Vancouver Art Gallery with a younger audience. Through his event planning, from concept to execution, he has brought increased participation in the gallery. Brady is a vital member of our young associates who has increased the image of the gallery through his knowledge of marketing.
