Hands-on support
Hello, I'm Chris Ellinas and I love solving business problems, through design thinking! 😊
I believe in good people. Good work is secondary.
I had the opportunity to work with engaging clients and brands around the world. My main client right now are Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime, designing logos and editing trailers for their movies and TV series (You have probably seen some of them but I can't tell you which they are...yet🤫).
My current focus is on online education, aiming to empower creatives to excel in the business aspects of the design industry.
I selectively mentor a few individuals each year to ensure personalized attention and impactful guidance. Here’s what I expect from you:
🚀 Active engagement and initiative in communication.
🌱 Be open-minded to new ideas and constructive feedback.
🎯 Follow through and be ready to put in the hard work.
Some of the areas we can explore together:
• Career launching and growth (design, freelance, employment, content creation)
• Business strategy and process refinement
• Portfolio/CV feedback and landing your dream job
• Starting and running your own business
• Creative problem-solving and design execution
And if budget is an issue, feel free to explore my YouTube channel and podcast, where I share all of my knowledge for free:

Let's embark on this journey to elevate your career and achieve your goals. Feel free to reach out with any questions, and get ready to launch in T minus 10...9... 🚀

Chris is amazing--he's truly everything you could want in a mentor (and more)! He's professional, knowledgeable, supportive, empathic,... and the list goes on. Chris is great at attentively listening and understanding where you are and where you want to go. Feedback is both gentle and incredibly useful--he does an excellent job at mixing positive reinforcement with honest and direct notes on things you may be missing. I was surprised to find that some of the most valuable lessons I've taken away thus far have been from the soft skills / human-centered conversations we've had. In particular, Chris primed me to cultivate more compassion for the clients I'm serving and truly empathize with them in a way that beyond selling -- e.g. referring a client to someone who may be better suited to fit their needs if it seemed like that was actually in their best interest, like if it was an issue of budget or fit. This one shift has led to clients trusting me more, and has elevated the way I approach problem solving and value delivery. I came to him as a recent college graduate looking to grow my niche web design business, but I've gotten so much more out of our sessions, and I can't wait to continue with Chris.

My mentorship with Chris was one of the best things I did this year. Not only did he give very helpful, practical, and precise advice as I improved my graphic design portfolio during a career shift, but he was very kind and supportive, helping me return to a healthy mindset at a time when I was feeling discouraged. I have a tendency to plan way ahead, overthink, and get overwhelmed by my own goals, but he navigated me through organizing those goals into more manageable, actionable, bite-sized chunks. I'm very grateful for the time I spent working with him!
