Meet the Heart of Dash: Marketing Team ??

Hello, Dash Community!

It’s time for another exciting update from our vibrant community. This week, we are thrilled to introduce you to our incredible Marketing & Visuals Team. These are the creative minds behind our brand, visuals, and online presence.?

Yuzu, Head of Marketing ??

Background: Hi! I’m Yuzu, Head of Marketing at Dash. I’ve been running our socials and coming up with our marketing plans for the year :) I just graduated from my BA in Design and continuing into my MA in IDBM at Aalto University!

I’ve always been curious about Dash but the timing to get involved was never right except this year! I absolutely love the energy, diversity and spirit of our team and can’t wait for all of you to experience the Dash magic soon <3

Fun Fact: I had two frogs as pets growing up ??

Fun Q&A:

Q: What’s a marketing campaign that inspired you recently?

Y: I absolutely adore Chamberlain Coffee’s marketing recently because they have broken away from traditional product marketing and have expanded their creativity into editorial marketing - something that fits Emma Chamberlain’s brand so well that it feels authentic! Their art direction is absolutely genius and super inspiring to see in that business!?

Q: What’s the most unusual miniature or trinket in your collection?

Y: I’m Japanese so I have access to crazy and interesting trinkets every time I go back home…but I would have to say my weirdest is a mini croissant with legs ??

Rochelle, Head of Visuals ??

Background: Hello, I’m Rochelle, Head of Visuals at Dash. My role involves crafting Dash’s visual identity, encompassing everything from foundational visual elements to creating materials for our events and social media.

Fun Fact: Joining Dash was a spontaneous decision for me, which made me nervous about the responsibilities and commitment it entailed. However, through open communication with the team, I'm transforming this journey into an insightful and exciting experience. ??

Fun Q&A:

Q: What’s a fashion piece you believe everyone should have in their wardrobe?

R: A well-structured plain white t-shirt. It’s a simple, versatile, and comfortable piece that can be styled in numerous ways. ??

Q: What’s your favorite part of the design process?

R: The ideation process. This early stage allows my creativity to roam freely when the rules aren’t yet defined. Following this, I enjoy generating ideas and presenting them to my team, gathering valuable feedback along the way.
