I am a Graphic Designer, born and raised in Amherstburg, Ontario. I very much enjoy my career, as it allows me to use my creative abilities to their full potential. I believe in clean, elegant design, and that, while efficiency is important, the quickest way to get a job done is not always the best way. In my spare time I enjoy drawing, creating music, and bicycle riding.
As a member of the creative team at Wired Solutions I put my creative skills and xhtml/css knowledge to work everyday. I designed, and implemented xml compliant websites, and styled web applications.
As founder of NERV, I worked on all aspects of a project, including submitting job proposals to prospective clients, creating and delivering job quotes, and working with clients to ensure that they got the best possible product. My clients included people in the financial sector, software developers, natural health care providers and local bands.
As a graphic designer for Douglas Marketing Group, I created websites, brochures, posters, logos, and business card designs for a wide variety of clients, ranging from financial institutions and corporations to high end jewellers and bed and breakfasts. It is at this firm that I learned my client communication skills, my knowledge of html/xhtml/css, and further honed my skills in photoshop and illustrator.
Non-profit organization started to educate the general public, automobile drivers in particular, about cyclists rights to road usage and the dangers of careless driving on the part of the auto driver and bike rider. This project was also started to help promote bicycle riding for both recreation and as a sustainable mode of transportation.
Workhorse Cycle Co. is a start-up clothing company founded by myself and a friend. We are working towards creating a strong name brand in high-quality clothing for bicycle enthusiasts - particularly fixed gear.
I enjoy recording electric guitar, bass, and percussion instruments with friends using my home recording set up.

Hey, my name is Bradd Richard Bezaire and I'm a graphic/web designer working out of Winnipeg, Manitoba. I'm largely self-taught, but I attended St. Clair College for a three year Graphic Design and Advertising program. There, I learned about illustration, layout, Photoshop, Illustrator, XHTML/CSS, InDesign, QuarkXpress, typography, advertising, and colour theory. Drawing and creating new things out of nothing has always been part of my life. From a young age I was obsessed with creating cartoon characters. As I grew older my attention shifted to comic books and super heroes. In my teenage years I became a connoisseur of fine record and t-shirt art and the bands associated with them.
I graduated in 2006 and began working at a small marketing/graphic design firm where I gained experience in web and print design. I left after about a year because I felt I had learned enough at that point to start my own small business. After a year of working for myself I started getting lonely so I decided to find a full time job.
I recently moved from Windsor, Ontario to Winnipeg, Manitoba and am currently looking for full-time employment and possibly some freelance work. The bulk of work in recent years has been web based and I am now hoping to find more work that involves illustration and layout for a change. In my free time, I enjoy playing and composing music, drawing, going to the gym, riding my fixed gear bicycle and playing bike polo with friends.
