The Frog

The frog is an icon for everything we hold dear.

He has big eyes, which to us symbolizes a never-ending search for knowledge and truth. That’s why frogs excel in marketing research roles.

He has a big heart, which to us means even though he is technically a tail-less amphibian, feelings are feelings. He understands human motivations and is in tune with what drives certain behaviors. Ideal resume for a marketing strategist!

He has big ideas, which to us means ideas that sell. Can you say “award-winning creative director?”

Oh… and he tastes like chicken!

Brianna Dawson – Graphic Designer

Brianna Dawson is the newest team member at Love Scott & Associates. She recently graduated from Iowa State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in graphic design, and now utilizes her skills in the creative department at LSA. One of her most treasured experiences during college took place during her last year at ISU, where she studied abroad for a semester in Rome, Italy. She’d like to think the experience gave her an interesting world view, and even a new perspective on art and design (not to mention a great understanding of pizza and gelato).

When she’s not adjusting the space between letters, creating logos or designing layouts, Brianna enjoys time spent with her family and friends, cookies, traveling, baby watching, the outdoors and leading a creative lifestyle in and outside of work.
