Kara Hess, graphic designer... launched her business in 1999 because she was tired of being called a creative director when what she really wanted was ownership and responsibility for the entire creative process for a wide spectrum of clientele. Oh yea, the equity stake wasn't bad either.

Her passion and commitment show in her work and the results are in themselves Dazium's customer loyalty program. Before throwing herself into her business, Kara led internal communications and production internationally for Black & Veatch, a top producer of power facilities around the globe. Prior to Black & Veatch she managed the prepress production for a high-volume Midwest printer.

Beyond having a good eye, Kara has an analytical mind. She is one of the few graphic designers that work with web coding, which enables her to produce the websites she art directs and designs. Control cool is a wonderful thing...just ask Kara.
