Zak Brazen

I'm a designer who builds relationships between people and brands. I've imagined, refined and brought big ideas to life for Nike, Nokia and Coke. I have a love affair with product, brand, strategy and design. As Creative Strategist for Brazenworks, I specialize in physical and digital interactions that delight people and differentiate brands. I create order out of chaos, develop creative ways to understand users, translate design research into insights and deliverables, and communicate my findings in ways that inspire and inform.

Past lives found me as Creative Strategist for Wieden+Kennedy and Exhibit Designer for The California Academy of Sciences.

I'm also a speaker and workshop leader who likes to poke things with sticks.
