“Shamel's one of those creative types who don't easily fit into a given catagory. On one hand, Shamel's a designer, in that he intuitivily knows how to stich together visual naratives to tell a compelling story. At the same time, he's an art director who I've watched create thought provoking advetising campaigns, across platforms. Add to to the list that he's a damn good photographer, who I had the pleasure of trecking litterally around the world with, from California, through Malaysia and onto South Africa, and you have what can only be desribed as a well-rounded creative type. If for some peculiear reason that's not enough to peak your interest, he's got a quick, well-sharpened sense of humor that pairs beatifully with a truely outgoing demeanor and assuming you're still not satisifed, I suggest you close up shop, as you're not going to get anything better then Shamel Washington for your team.”
