Katty Neill

Since graduating from Ferris in 2009, Katty Neill has worked as a Graphic Designer and Creative Director in West Michigan — building, managing and supporting new and established brands. Her experience includes working for a family-owned furniture company to a Fortune 500 to a 7-person woman-owned design studio. Along the way, she's gained a passion for and deep understanding of businesses of all shapes and sizes. This knowledge has led Katty to work as a valued partner alongside business owners, using design to impact culture and ultimately, their bottom line. Since working for Square One Design in Grand Rapids, Katty has earned the title of Creative Director, establishing brands like Johnny's Markets, Profile Films and Marina Grand Resort.

"After working professionally for more than ten years, I truly believe my education at Ferris played a strong role in my success. Software, techniques and trends are constantly changing, but if you learn to be resourceful, ask the right questions and problem solve, you can do anything. That's what Ferris gave me."
