Portfolio Highlights

Hi, I’m Dio Perez — Creative Director/Designer and former Creative Services Manager at McCallum Theatre.

For 15 years, I led visual storytelling and design for one of the Coachella Valley’s flagship cultural institutions, shaping campaign branding, print collateral, digital marketing, and event experiences that connected audiences and donors alike, aligning creative strategy with fundraising initiatives totaling upwards of $5 million annually.
​
Below is a curated selection of work* from my time at McCallum Theatre that demonstrates strategic design, multi-channel campaigns, and visual excellence.
 I now work as an independent Creative Director, consulting with small nonprofits to bring
​this caliber of design, storytelling, and community impact to their initiatives.
