Juan Ortega, born in Cuba, is a 3rd generation advertising professional. With his father as the president of Publicidad Guau in Havana, Juan took an interest in the craft early on, joining his dad during meetings with illustrators and paper sculptors, sometimes, tagging along to photography sessions or printing approvals.
Later, as his family sought political asylum in the US, Juan pursued his career in graphic design in Los Angeles, studying at LATTC (Los Angeles Technical Trade College) and continuing his education at the Otis Parsons and Art Center, College of Design. Fresh out of school, Juan went to work with the Kramer Company, a promotional marketing firm, eventually heading the entire in-house creative department. Later, Juan was hired as Art Director for the Beaumont Design Group, a merchandising design agency specializing in consumer product packaging and 3-dimensional design.
In 1984, after several years freelancing for some of the top advertising and design agencies in Los Angeles, Juan pursued his entrepreneurial and creative side by establishing Ortega Design Group. Since its inception, ODG has developed fresh, creative and effective advertising solutions for Fortune 500 clients in a variety of industries. With an integrated approach to communications, Juan works with a variety of mediums, including print, outdoor, point-of-purchase, packaging and collateral material to create strong, consistent, brand-building campaigns for each of his clients.
Today, Juan leads ODG to the forefront of its industry, establishing a New Media and a Hispanic Market division. He has also strategically positioned ODG as a stealth creative force for some of the top advertising and public relations firms in the country.
"Design must break through conventional wisdom and industry formulas to yield solutions with integrity, ingenuity and originality."
-- Juan C. Ortega
