My academic journey has equipped me with the tools to decode consumer behaviour, unearth market trends, and craft designs that resonate on a profound level. My professional journey has given me the opportunity to research, build and conduct marketing campaigns and strategies for various clients and industries. I have also overseen and directed corporate restructurings, mergers and acquisitions, and multiple rebrandings, large and small.
It’s this fusion of creativity and data-driven insights that sets Windmills Media apart. Let’s infuse your brand with a touch of strategy and a dash of creativity. Together, we’ll unlock the full potential of your brand’s story.
A Passion For Design
Design isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. My journey in the world of design has been fueled by an unquenchable passion and an unwavering commitment to honing my craft.
Each day, I wake up excited to explore new design horizons, to push boundaries, and to create visual stories that leave a lasting impact. But it doesn’t stop there. I believe that the pursuit of excellence is a lifelong journey, and I’m dedicated to constantly learning, evolving, and sharpening my design skills.
Windmills Media is a reflection of this passion and my desire to bring fresh, innovative ideas to your brand. Let’s embark on a creative journey together, where passion and dedication meet to craft designs that tell your unique story.
Nick Mills
Hey there, I’m Nick Mills, and I’m the driving force behind Windmills Media. I wear many hats here, and I’m excited to share a bit about myself with you.
I’m a proud graduate of Mount Allison University, where I pursued a Double Major in Marketing and Psychology. With over 8 years in the marketing world, I’ve gained a wealth of experience that I love bringing to the table. But there’s more to me than just marketing – I have a secret design ninja side. Certificates in Graphic Design, Logo Design, and more? Absolutely!
While I spend a good chunk of my time crafting websites for clients and helping organizations transform, my true passion lies in supporting small businesses and start-ups. There’s something magical about helping the little guys thrive.
When I’m not knee-deep in work, you’ll find me in the great outdoors, drawing inspiration from nature. I’m also a fan of sports banter and enjoy a good conversation on the topic. Beyond that, I’m a foodie at heart, cooking up delicious meals whenever I can, and I cherish quality time spent with my furry companions – my dogs.
In a nutshell, I’m the guy who adds the creative spark to Windmills Media and helps turn dreams into reality. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me a little better!
