This is my abridged biography:
I am Chaz Russo. Design is what I love to do. Its my gift. I could not see myself doing anything else. God gave me a gift, so I’m gonna use it accordingly…
I hail from the great northeast — born and raised in New Jersey, schooled in NYC at the School of Visual Arts, and currently reside in Arizona. I work for Cornerstone Chandler–it’s a frickin’ huge church in Chandler, AZ. I love Arizona, but I miss the east–especially the seasons. I vow, I will return to my eastern coastal home one day…maybe.
Anyways, about my work…I like integrating everything I know. I love drawing and doing stuff by hand…the computer ain’t bad either, but I hate stuff that is completely computer rendered. Be creative. Do something worthwhile. Turn some heads, make a difference, touch some hearts and make some people think in the process. That’s how I work–that’s how I will always work.
Hire me if you like~

Dude. You ROCK! Always wondered who was behind the graphic creativity at Cornerstone. My husband and I have been members for a few years and always comment on how brilliant the graphics are. Keep up the great work!!

There’s only one Hiatt I know…and he’s a huge throw-back to middle school…is that you man?!

That is I. And you are the only Chaz I know. I like your “Love Above All” T-shirt design. In fact, I really dig your designing style overall. I’d like to make a purchase of the Love Above All T-shirt. I would like to get it with red lettering on white T-shirt if possible. Also I’d like to give you cash, and in person, so that you get all of the profit rather than from a third party. We can make the exchange when you get back to NYC.
