Hello,

I am Talin Baharian a self-taught, award-winning designer and art director currently serving as the SVP., Director of Design at Deutsch, headquartered in Los Angeles. With over 25 years of experience in the advertising industry, I have had the privilege to collaborate with a diverse range of clients and exceptionally talented individuals. Throughout my career, I have been featured in Communication Arts, received a prestigious Belding award, served as a judge for the renowned International Color Awards photography competition, and mentored aspiring professionals through the WLN Mentor Circle and the 3% Conference.

My aesthetic approach, while diverse, often involves a sense of play, aiming to put the fun in functional. Strategically, my work aims to elevate brands by distilling core messaging down to its clearest and freshest visual form. Throughout my career, I have been privileged to embark on extraordinary journeys, ascending the majestic peaks of Chilean volcanoes and witnessing awe-inspiring moments like a Stealth Bomber gracefully soaring through the skys of Death Valley. These, along with many extraordinary journeys has shaped me to embrace the limitless possibilities that lie ahead.
