MARY B. NYGAARD
Design Advisor

While most other designers strive for simply “pretty,” Mary is also concerned with function and effectiveness. Her focus is on how well the creative works, not simply how it looks, which makes her work an invaluable part of Johnson Direct’s measurable marketing services. It also makes her art direction extremely popular with our ROI-conscious clients. Mary’s years of experience, combined with a razor-sharp eye for color, give her a solid understanding of what’s required to create attention-grabbing, “printer-friendly” designs.

Before joining Johnson Direct, Mary served as a Milwaukee ad agency’s advertising project director, and also held graphic design positions with an area newspaper and two printing companies. A graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a degree in fine arts, Mary’s well-rounded educational background also includes a major in fine arts photography and two minors in English and communications.
