Clare Buedel

As a senior art director and strategist at a fast-paced marketing firm, I develop customer-centric, data-driven strategies for our clients and also deliver creative solutions ranging from national campaigns to large events. I interact with clients daily, and I am comfortable with both collaborative and independent work. In addition to my strategy and creative work, I also have an equally strong background in communications. I was a reporter at Peoria’s daily newspaper for four years before going back to school to pursue a career in graphic design. This experience comes in handy, as I often write my own headlines, work with my team to tweak copy and help develop the overall communication strategy for my projects.
