Catherine Cooney

I like to make complex issues easy to understand and easy on the eyes, whether it’s aimed at a B to B market, a healthcare professional or a consumer audience. I've garnered a wide range of experience working on concepts, branding, websites, apps, brochures, direct mail and more. For more information on what I can offer, please contact me at cmmcooney@gmail.com.

Currently, I’m working with Herbst Produkt, an industrial and brand design firm based in Chicago and Santa Cruz, developing branding for innovative new products, such as Pattern, Population and Bedrock Ocean.

In addition, I’m working with Section4, an ed-tech startup from Scott Galloway, helping to build their identity and grow their rapidly expanding business. I worked with the team to develop a new look and feel for the brand, including the website and developed a flexible, comprehensive email template, along with social media templates, all designed for rapid rollout.

Prior to that, for several years, I had the opportunity to work with Clover Health, a health insurance start-up in San Francisco, helping to grow and evolve their brand expression as they expand to new markets. I’ve also worked with Propeller Health in San Francisco, who are helping asthma and COPD patients track and improve their inhaler use. 

I have extensive experience working agency-side, in full-time roles at DDB in San Francisco (Assistant Creative Director), and at Grey Healthcare Group and Harrison & Star (Senior Art Director) in New York, with freelance stints at Digitas and Havas along the way.

From Ireland originally, I moved to the U.S. after college and first lived for a spell in Portland, Oregon, before heading to New York. 8 years later, I was westward again to San Francisco, CA. I’ve recently moved back to Ireland, and continue to work closely with my U.S. clients, enjoying the 5, 6, 7 or 8 hour head start everyday!
