About Lazer Champion
Hello, my name is Emily, a.k.a. Lazer Champion. I was born into an advertising family, both my Dad and brother are creative directors. It's safe to say that marketing and design are in my blood. I grew up playing "name that font," a game my father and I created while watching movies and television shows. I've been working as a creative director and art director for 18+ years, building a diverse background out of my experience with networks, agencies, and post-production houses — from both the client and agency perspective. This experience has allowed me to focus on advertising, branding/identity, motion graphics, and VFX projects. My goals and ethos have remained constant: to learn, grow, and create totally badass work. Compassion is a core value of mine, I strive to lead by example and generate exceptional work across all mediums — broadcast, print, social, digital, experiential, and mobile.
TL;DR — It's all about your crew. The most successful campaigns I have had the pleasure of leading have been brought to life by a cohesive, engaged team grounded in strategic thinking and possessed by the inextinguishable desire to craft exceptional creative work.
