Ken Boostrom

Brafton’s design department has come a long way in two short years, recently listed as one of the top 10 infographic design firms in 2013. Based in Boston and Chicago, the graphic designers follow a one-team approach to data visualization for marketing success, and their efforts have garnered a strong graphic product catalog that’s constantly expanding.

When looking for a director to propel Brafton’s industry-leading graphic department, we’ll admit, he had a tall order. The director had to possess not only the undeniable artistic abilities needed for compelling design, but also the experience to mentor and educate younger designers.

The newly appointed director Ken Boostrom fit Brafton’s bill, and in-turn, Boostrom said he felt as though the position was “made for him.” With strong visual design, SEO and web development skills, plus a track record of pragmatic strategies and open lines of communication, Boostrom’s design experiences span more than 20 years, including campaigns for ABC Sports, Titlelist and the NFL.

Ken’s passionate, energized, professional demeanor is key to elevating Brafton’s design work and team strengths. Here’s a peek into his personality and the creativity he’s bringing to Brafton and the clients:
