Hello
My name is David T. Hsia (that’s SHAH). I’m a Taipei-born, LA-bred creative director that loves sweating the details and is a sucker for a good beat. With over 15 years of experience in visual design, art direction and branding, I’ve worked on and managed just about every kind of creative brief from clients of varying fields, Fortune 100 to home office. Off-hours, I’m usually record-digging and writing about my collection.
