Westerne Team

Built around experience.

Westerne Creative Co. operates as a lean, senior-led studio.

We believe the best work comes from clarity, restraint, and direct access to experience—not layers of process or bloated teams.

Every project is led with intention, drawing from deep creative and operational knowledge, and supported by a trusted network of collaborators when needed.

Brad Carter

Founder & Principal

Brad Carter founded Westerne Creative Co. to serve businesses that care deeply about what they’re building—and want a partner who understands both the creative and operational sides of growth.

With over 15 years of experience, Brad has built, scaled, and operated brands across retail, manufacturing, e-commerce, outfitting, media, and experiential businesses. His work blends brand strategy, design, storytelling, and systems thinking—helping companies align how they look, communicate, and operate.

Unlike traditional agencies, Brad works directly with clients from strategy through execution. That means no handoffs, no dilution of vision, and no guesswork—just thoughtful, well-considered work built to perform in the real world.

At the core of his approach is a simple belief that good design should earn its keep, and strong brands are built to last.

Intentionally Built

Westerne is intentionally lean.

That allows us to stay focused, responsive, and deeply involved in every project.

When a project calls for additional expertise—development, photography, video, or specialized production—we collaborate with a small, trusted network of professionals who share our standards and approach.

The result is a team that scales to fit the work, without sacrificing quality or accountability, all while saving cost for our client - you!
