Hey, I’m Xiang Gao—friends call me 'Gao.' I’m a designer, illustrator, and art director based in San Francisco, working on branding and campaigns across industries, from lifestyle and fashion to tech and beyond. With over a decade of experience, I believe the best design is clever, simple, and intentional—seamlessly aligning creativity with business goals. And with just the right touch of humor, ideas travel farther—like a good cowboy ride under open skies.
Btw, 'Xiang' means 'fly,' and 'Gao' means 'high.' My name means 'fly high,' in Chinese and the deeper meaning is freedom, like a cowboy.
