Heather Gray

Hello, I’m Heather!

I am an award-winning designer and versatile creative leader with more than a decade of success in marketing, publishing, and communications.

With an art teacher for a dad, a painter for a mom, and a commercial artist for a grandmother, I didn’t stand a chance — I was destined to create. From an early age I was a visual storyteller, using quirky ’90s clip art to turn ordinary school assignments into fully designed reports.

After earning a BFA in Graphic Design, I led the digital media department at an advertising agency before serving as Art Director for a publishing company where I shaped the content and visual strategy for regional lifestyle magazines. Later, I became Creative Director / Digital Content Manager for a national food media website and publication. Today, I hold the dual position of Senior Designer / Marketing and Communications Manager at Milepost.

My skill set extends far beyond design, so I’m known for wearing multiple hats in any given role. Over the course of my career I’ve led creative teams, wrangled editorial calendars, managed social media, developed websites, written and edited articles, proofread (just call me “Eagle Eye”), directed photo/video shoots, occasionally illustrated, and even created logos out of food.

For a full career history, check out LinkedIn, or explore my portfolio for select projects.

When I’m not pushing pixels or pencils, you might find me painting in my home studio (gouache and watercolor), cuddling my three cats, gardening, collecting vintage goods, planning my next road trip, or “treasure” hunting on a beach somewhere.
