We’re a small team with big ideas and a passion for doing things well.

Sean Shapiro, Co-Founder

  • I have spent 20 years helping organizations tell better stories.

    I started as an art director, worked my way up to leading a creative department producing over 1,400 projects a year, and eventually found my way into the nonprofit world, where the work started to feel like it had real stakes. I rebuilt the United Way's website, grew an executive LinkedIn account to 77,000-plus monthly impressions, and ran a digital campaign that drove 17,000 visits to a donation page. Before that I scaled an e-commerce business past a million dollars and directed a company-wide rebrand for a national brand working alongside Apple, Tesla, and Pepsi.

    I am based in Cleveland. I serve on the boards of Daily Dose of Reading, the Urban League of Greater Cleveland's Minority Business Assistance Center, and the Area 19 Workforce Development Board. The work I do for clients is the same work I believe in outside of office hours.

    If your organization has a story worth telling and needs help telling it, that is exactly what I do.

Christine Cirigliano, Creative Director & Strategic Consultant

  • Christine is a Creative Leader who helps companies establish a strong corporate identity in the marketplace by building their brands from the ground up. She develops clear creative direction, structures project workflows, and coordinates teams so work moves smoothly from concept to completion. Christine partners with clients who need full creative development, as well as organizations with in‑house Creative Services teams that benefit from an experienced collaborator who can step in, guide the process, and keep work on track.

    Christine brings a strong understanding of how brands are built and how they reach the customer. She works hands on, designing visual systems, layouts, and assets that translate seamlessly across print, digital, online, and experiential environments. Her background in print production gives her a practical understanding of how creative decisions impact the final product.

    Throughout her career, Christine has worked with a wide range of industries, including KeyBank, Rigid Tool, law firms, healthcare and agricultural landscape publications, the Lake Erie Monsters, real estate, hospitality, physicians, boutique businesses, and spas. Moving across so many sectors has made her a quick study who listens closely, understands a client’s goals, and translates their vision into clear, effective creative solutions.

    There is no corporation too large or business too small for Christine’s experience to support. She approaches every client as an individual, hears who they are, and delivers work that is never cookie cutter..
