His onboarding of me to the team was everything a new employee can ask for. His guidance is truly valuable. His design and coding skills are detailed and flawless. He provided detailed instructions and design methodology in managing Citrix’s emails. You can count on Seth to deliver and put the best foot forward for your business. Diplomatic and asks the right questions for best results. I highly recommend Seth Held to be part of your team if you are considering it.”

— Alexis Morgenstern
Visual Designer, Citrix Systems

Seth is a dedicated, hard-working and naturally detail-oriented person that I’ve had the honor of working with for many years.

One of my favorite qualities about Seth is his ability to make difficult problems seem easy! His positive attitude is very refreshing, and because of this I’ve always felt I could approach him with my opinions and really be heard. Any time I needed help with something complex or important, Seth was the one to do it. I knew I could depend on him to take the right notes, understand what was needed and adhere to the timeline. He has never failed to deliver!

Another great quality is Seth’s ability to learn and teach. Often I would be given a project that involved technological or marketing aspects I wasn’t familiar with, and Seth would take time to bring me up to speed. I’ve depended on his email, graphic and technical expertise for many years and he’s never steered me wrong. If I had a project he wasn’t familiar with, he responded with optimism and motivation to learn. He also maintains a level of awareness in his field that has always impressed me. Like most professions, the tactics, protocols and overall direction of catering to your target market is constantly evolving, but Seth never seemed to fall behind the curve. His can-do attitude brought something fresh to the table any time we met.

Seth is also a great communicator. If something doesn’t look right, doesn’t feel right, or if the timeline of a project needs changing, he will let you know. Seth isn’t shy about making sure his teammates know what needs to get done and the timeframe it’s needed in, and we all respect that level of clarity. If he has questions, he asks! While that might not seem like a novel concept, he really goes above and beyond to ensure he is in the loop and that everyone around him is well communicated to. When trying to achieve an end goal, I’ve found things move much faster when collaborating with people who strive to work in this way.

Overall Seth is a kind, dependable and highly valued coworker. I trust that anyone who works with him now or in the future would agree.”

If you are looking for a designer to take your brand to the next level, Seth is your guy! I was extremely impressed with not only his speed and professionalism, but also by the final products, and how creative and pleasing to the eye they were. Not only did he take specific direction from me and execute perfectly, he also took vague suggestions when I would tell him something like, ‘we have no idea what we want, just make it look good,’ and in both instances he knocked it out of the park.”

— Angela L.
Sr. Communications Specialist, Florida Fortune 500 Company

Seth is an amazing talent and a true artist. Professionally we’ve worked together on projects that require skill, patience and a creative eye. Seth has it all. Deadlines that would stress even the most seasoned designer, Seth handles with ease. Seth is a rare talent in a sea of sameness. He rises above the trends and sets his own. I’m proud to call Seth both a colleague and a great friend of 13 years. Oh, and did I mention he does a mean Christopher Walken impression!”

— Marcee Pauff
Creative Director, MJS Advertising

Seth worked for me (remotely) in a position designing and developing emails using HTML and CSS. The position was not as straightforward as it may seem; Seth had to build templates from scratch and test across multiple systems to then upload to another system that was still working out bugs. His work was meticulous and thorough, and he was also very proficient in working 1-on-1 with clients to help with personalized requests. He had the added responsibility of helping transition clients from Marketo to a new system for email marketing, and helping legacy Marketo users within that platform. Seth was responsible and effective.”

I’ve worked with artists for years and rarely ever do they get it right on the first try. Seth is really a pro. And his positive attitude makes him a pleasure to work with time and time again.”
