I am Candida Infante, an art director & freelance graphic designer based in Springfield, Missouri. I’ve had over three years of agency and 20+ years in-house experience, and have placed my main focus on Branding and Identity projects while staying up to date on digital, video and web design.

I believe that conceptual Innovation, key client relationships and team collaboration are all essential components to success in creative design. As an art director I have been successful in executing advertising projects and creative strategy for high-profile brands. My background lies in driving the design & creating effective creative campaigns, with expertise in photo/video direction, managing teams, creating processes and my ability to communicate effectively with clients and peers.

When I'm away from my laptop, you can find me sketching, making suitcase chairs or brainstorming a script for could be the next Hamilton. I am also immersed in the world of skateboarding which I feel is as beautiful as watching a ballet dancer. The sport encompasses balance, grace and an individual's determination to push themselves. I also enjoy hiking, kayaking and working on vintage cars.
