Sam Chavez, founder of the roots of change agency
"Working with Daniel is always a breath of fresh air. He brings considerable experience and creativity to every project. Beyond his creativity, Daniel is incredibly organized. He was always one step ahead and kept us updated before we even had time to wonder what was next. He excelled at turning around any feedback and always went above and beyond what was expected.

Brit H., Communications Stategist
"Daniel was fantastic, very creative, personable and organized in his approach for this project. We could not be happier with the result!"

Gigi P., Executive Director
"We truly enjoyed worked with Daniel. Daniel's project delivery was exceptional. Extremely professional and simply beyond our expectations. I highly recommend Daniel for any graphic logo design and visual brand identity project. We were able to update our logo. It looks amazing!"

Iffat W., Executive Director
"Daniel was a huge help to us! I presented him with a pretty complex set of needs for branding of a yearly event. Not only did he synthesize the ideas beautifully and come up with a theme that made sense with our previous work and was fresh, accessible, cohesive and young; but he also created and delivered on a design schedule with ample time to finish ahead of schedule. Both his aesthetic and his artistic abilities are excellent, and his organizational and project management skills are as well. His nuanced understanding of mental health issues was a great asset, and his kind, thoughtful, aware, and caring manner made him an absolute pleasure to work with. We are so grateful for his work!"

Amy B., Special Events Coordinator
"It sounds trite, but DAN IS THE MAN! He stepped in at a moment's notice and delivered big time. I am looking forward to utilizing his design skills again - next time with more than a 48-hour turnaround time."

Steve L., CEO
"Such a pleasure to work with. My only complaint is that he doesn't live closer, because I would like to buy him lunch!"

Steve L., CEO (2nd Testimonial)
"Daniel has a great attitude and is very easy to work with. He's full of ideas and flexible to changes. He really took the time to get to know our organization and the spirit of our mission. That thoughtfulness and background work shone brightly in all of his design work."

Hi, I’m Daniel

At DVG Designs, I’ve always focused my design work on those making a difference. Through pro bono and freelance graphic design, I’ve have helped numerous nonprofits recieve the grants they need and increase conversion rates up to 14%. I usually do this by designing multi-page reports, presentations, data visualizations, iconography, and any graphics that help communicate an organization’s success.
