BIO
Joe Barthlow graduated from the Univ. of Oregon in
1993. His design experience began by designing fraternity rush
brochures
in the university Mac lab.
After moving to Salem, Oregon with his wife, Tina, Joe helped
several legislators with their communication needs at the Capitol.
Projects ranged from web sites to newsletters. At the same
time, he continued to develop his skills by
setting ads at a newspaper and helping with layout at a local
real estate magazine.
While managing several direct mail campaigns for House and
Senate members, Joe joined MBM Strategies, a Salem based public
relations firm, in 1994. As the graphic designer, Joe designed
direct mail pieces and print ads for local and statewide
campaigns.
In 1997, Joe joined ORD Products Inc. as a graphic designer
on their marketing team, which managed several national brands.
At ORD, Joe designed catalogs, brochures, packaging, POP, identity,
direct mail,
and print advertising. He also developed the company's web
presence.
To strengthen his overall knowledge of print and web design,
Joe went back to the U of O for
a design degree in 1998. At the same time,
he enjoyed successful freelance design, building solid
relationships
with printers, photographers, mail
houses, and packaging companies.
Joe then spent 2000-2008 as a senior designer for Poppie Advertising Design
in Eugene, Oregon, a design firm with clients ranging from academic
institutions to large retailers to software companies to furniture makers.
In the Fall of 2008, Joe shifted
gears and created Barthlow Design, where he provides
graphic
solutions
for
brand
identity
systems,

of getting the biggest bang for your buck. When you work with
