Associate Creative Director · Chicago
Big ideas, built to scale.
I'm Greg Sidelnik. I've spent 20+ years in the creative industry taking work from first idea to final file. Today I lead a cross-functional creative team at Tukaiz, help small businesses with design and web, and fly FPV drones to scratch the creative itch.
Selected work
Campaigns, menu boards, POP and brand work for restaurant, beverage and retail brands.
What I do
01
Creative Direction
Ideation through execution. I set the direction, build the team and stay hands-on so the idea survives the rollout.
02
Brand Systems & Guidelines
Business rules and brand standards that keep high-volume output consistent at every location.
03
Retail & QSR Production
Menu boards, POP and in-store campaigns for multi-unit brands, built for speed to market.
04
Photography & Retouching
I manage the retouching team that takes every image to a final, approved file.
05
Branding & Identity
Logos, brand kits and print pieces that give small businesses a look they can grow into.
06
Web & Digital
WordPress websites and digital assets for small businesses, built to be easy to manage.

Real estate, travel and event photo and video, on the ground and in the air.
