About The Co.

Brand storytelling with your audience as the hero.

Storytelling is the most powerful way to captivate audiences and convert them into loyal fans of your brand that not only subscribe to your messaging, but feel empowered enough to share it with those around them.

Clarity is how disjointed brands can get their act together and write stories people will give a damn about.

Saïd Martínez Calderón

Saïd Martínez Calderón

Founder

Originally from Mexico City and now living and working in Washington DC, I was brought to this country as an undocumented immigrant at five years old.

Now, fully documented, educated, and strongly opinionated, I’ve made my career as a graphic + web designer for over 15 years working with brands (and slightly embarrassed) such as The World Bank, AARP, GEICO, and DELL.

I founded Martínez Calderón Co. to collaborate and cooperate with other brands that recognize the importance of augmenting the inevitable voice of our multicultural heritage.

If we are to truly embrace this social experiment we keep calling a melting pot, we must recognize that to be American doesn’t simply mean that we speak good English.

That is the privilege that I currently find myself in, to work alongside people that truly embrace our diversity.

Let’s make some cool stuff happen!
