With over 9 years of experience working in-house at corporate and nonprofit organizations, and as a consultant with design agencies, I have developed a passion for mission-driven work.
In the retail, non-profit, healthcare, and education sectors my specializations include identity systems and branding, motion graphics, editorial design and production, print and digital communications, special event materials, and marketing campaigns.
I've worked with clients including The Brooklyn Hospital Center, the Bob Woodruff Foundation, St. Francis College, the New York City Police Foundation, and the LGBT Center of Raleigh.
At The City College of New York and at the Fashion Institute of Technology, I teaches courses in design and typography.

He is a huge asset to our program." — Lynn Appelbaum, Professor, Advertising/PR Program Professor at City College of New York
"Yoni Weiss is a creative thinker and problem solver. We have interacted as professor/student and as art director/designer. I value my professional relationship with Yoni because he has consistently exceeded my expectations, suggesting new processes that have benefitted my clients and students. Yoni generously shares his professional knowledge and ideas with colleagues and fellow designers. One of Yoni's exceptional qualities is his focus on what is new and trending in our design industry; he has kept me current on many an occasion. Yoni has impressed me with his perceptions and insights, he is critical and articulate in his analyses. I have participated in portfolio reviews alongside Yoni where he has offered useful and incisive advice. And on more than one occasion, Yoni has helped me through a tight deadline with professionalism and aplomb. I have recommended him for more than one position and I would happily recommend him again." — Ina Saltz, Author, Lynda.com/LinkedIn Learning; Professor, CCNY; Author: Typography Essentials; Body Type I & II
