Meet Amy

amy-farrell-times2studio

CO-FOUNDER | CREATIVE DIRECTOR | PROJECT MANAGER

Your first point of contact at T2S is Amy. She’ll see that your project gets off to a strong start. Her keen intuition for impactful design and obsession with customer service make her a treasure to know and work alongside. Amy is a detailed problem-solver who embraces design and marketing challenges that test her creative instincts.

Education: BA in Graphic Design from Montana State University

Expertise

Branding, creative strategy. Seeing other small businesses succeed is one of Amy’s passions. She believes that with the right messaging—and the creative to back it up—businesses can increase their reach and achieve their business goals.

Exhibit, museum and trade show signage. Once upon a time in Portland, Oregon, Amy learned the ins and outs of corporate branding processes with trade show clients that included biggies like Microsoft, Cisco Systems Inc. and Avid. On the softer side of the spectrum, she’s created educational and engaging graphics for dozens of national and state parks, visitor centers and museums. She loves highlighting the beauty found in our stunning country. Not to mention, looking at photos of wildlife and landscapes all day isn’t so bad!

Technical communications, infographics. Since 2005, Amy has distinguished herself by developing high-performance business and technical communications. These training materials have spurred efficient, money-saving internal processes for large companies with multiple departments, while meeting environmental and safety benchmarks with design flair.

Meet Todd

CO-FOUNDER | CREATIVE DIRECTOR

Todd Farrell has a refined eye for powerful visual solutions. A master at wrangling chaos into clarity, Todd’s inherent practicality serves him well as a “visual problem solver.” He distills complex concepts, processes and functional relationships into meaningful graphics.

Education: BA in Graphic Design from Montana State University

Expertise

Music merchandising. Designing packaging, labels, catalogs and point-of-purchase displays for a music distributor in the Northwest, Todd learned the ins and outs of unique production methods and developed brands for start-up music labels.
Nonprofits. In Montana, before finding his home at times2studio, Todd entered the advertising/marketing arena as an art director for a Missoula-based agency where he created work for nonprofits like Camp-Mak-a-Dream and Watson Children’s Shelter. His creative and production skills were further honed by designing catalogs, publications, packaging, ad campaigns and more for Community Medical Center, Rocky Mountain School of Photography, Sun Mountain Sports, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation and Glacier Country tourism commission.

Current Loves

Macro photography, single-malt Scotch, corny jokes and growing an epic beard

The story behind the studio…

We get a lot of questions about the origin of the times2studio name. Co-founders Todd and Amy met in college and have continued to journey through life and business together in two meaningful places—first Portland, Oregon, and now beautiful Missoula, Montana. They share their lives with two inquisitive identical twin boys (now 15 years old). Hence, the number “2” holds heartfelt significance. For Todd and Amy, fulfillment comes from spending time with family and doing the important work of helping other businesses reach their goals through inspiring design. (Photo by Shannon Edney.)

Before times2studio, there was Amy Farrell Graphic Design, a freelance studio started in 2001, with Amy as the sole designer. Todd joined Amy to form times2studio in 2010. Since then, the two have combined their distinct areas of expertise and (sometimes opposite) perspectives into work that drives solid results for their clients.
