I'm a product designer working at the intersection of marketing, UX, and accessibility.

The internet is crowded with web applications that communicate poorly, underperform, and fail customers.

A brief bio and a look at how I approach my work

I build websites and emails

I've spent 15+ years as a UX professional and digital marketer building internet applications for some of America's most trusted brands. I help them discover their unique value, ensure their message is clearly communicated, and deliver online strategies that generate sales, donations, and signups. Here's how I provide consistent results for my clients:

design thinking

Kind words from my peer, bosses, clients, and stakeholders.

Alan Blose,
Director of Creative and Marketing

Yes, he can push pixels with the best of them (and often does), cranking out banners, emails, landing pages, and websites. Todd’s at his best though, digging into complex projects in an organization that truly values a thoughtful approach to user-centered design. What I grew to appreciate even more than his pure creative firepower, was the character and integrity he demonstrates as a creative leader.

Melanie Merrifield,
Senior Strategist, Content, and UX

Todd brings powerful usability voodoo to bear on everything in the pixelated universe. From banners to landers, websites to email, Todd's work isn't just graphically strong -- it's engineered for engagement. He's strategic, well-spoken, a talented designer, and a compassionate manager who's sincerely interested in his colleagues. He has the hands-on skills not only to direct strong creative but to jump in and refine it.

Cori Massingale,
Director of Human Resources at Revolos

In a fast-paced, dynamic, constantly changing work environment with looming deadlines Todd is always positive, always patient, always willing to assist, and always there to work with you to find the best solution. Todd’s knowledge, experience, leadership, and vast expertise in all things creative, digital, and marketing make him a valuable asset that any company would be lucky to have!

Scott Johnson,
Group VP, Creative Director

I am a huge fan of Todd Chambers. He has a deep understanding of UX and the interactive space as a whole. His warm demeanor and meticulous approach to his work make him a favorite of clients and teammates alike. He has a rare ability to inspire confidence in everyone around him. Perhaps most importantly, his work gets results. I admire not just the way he carries himself as an advertising professional but as a gentleman.

Cory Smith,
Digital Innovation Leadership

Competent, professional, highly creative, collaborative, thoughtful, detail-oriented, and thorough are just some of the words that I would use to describe Todd and his work. Having had the opportunity to work with Todd in collaboration on numerous projects he has demonstrated a substantial depth of knowledge as well as strong creative and leadership skills in addition to the ability to perform small miracles under tight deadlines.

Todd Bemis,
VP, Group Creative Director

Todd Chambers is quite possibly the most strategic Creative Director I have ever had the pleasure to work with.

An astute observer and collaborator, he adds a layer of true sensibility and user-centricity to everything he touches.

His agility of thought and elegant manner of leadership is empowering to his teams and clients.
