ZACH BASTEN - CREATIVE DIRECTOR / ART
Dad. Husband. Creative Director. Runner.
I’m a Midwesterner originally from Appleton, Wisconsin, who moved to Chicago to see where my creativity could take me.
My career started out in beer, working for Leinenkugel’s, but I have now been lucky enough to work with some amazing brands on a variety of products. I have worked on spirits and beer brands like Miller Lite, Coors Light, Blue Moon, Woodbridge, Meiomi, and The Glenlivet. Sports brands like Nike and Spalding. CPG products like Chomps, Pedialyte, Hefty & Dixie. Technology companies like HP, Intel, & Facebook. And QSR brands like Dunkin’.
Outside of work, if you don’t find me chasing after my son or dog you will probably find me running on a trail somewhere. I am an avid runner and diehard sports fan. A good year for me includes tailgate parties at Lambeau Field and a marathon or two.
I am always up for my next challenge, so don’t hesitate to reach out: zach.basten@gmail.com
Thanks for checking out my work.
