About Freddy Meynard

Events Coordinator at Ad Rodeo

Hi, I'm Freddy Meynard, and I bring over 20 years of experience as an Art Director and Creative mentor.

I’ve worked across print, editorial, brand, digital, and product design, and I’ve helped lead events like TEDx, PixelProject, and AdRodeo. I’ve mentored designers at all levels, collaborated with cross-functional teams, and built strategies that move creative work forward.

If you’re a designer who’s ready to grow, I offer 1:1 mentorship that helps you find your voice, strengthen your craft, and build a creative career you can stand behind. This is not a formula or a plug and play course. It is a tailored path shaped around your goals, your work, and the challenges you face. If you’re ready to move with clarity instead of guessing your way through it, I’m here to help you take the next step.

I can help you with: • Designing with intention and building with clarity. • Growing into a creative leader, not a follower. • Elevating your portfolio so it reflects your value. • Setting OKRs and career goals you can act on. • Communicating and presenting work with confidence.

I’m passionate about helping designers like you unlock their potential, build confidence, and thrive in their creative careers. Let’s make your journey to success clear and impactful!
