Hi, I'm Benji.
I'm Christopher Benjamin — a Phoenix-based designer, a proud father, and a Disabled US Air Force Veteran. I've been running Benji Does since 2012, turning itchy little brain bugs into brand identities that actually look the part everywhere they show up.
Benji Does is a small studio — me and my partners. You work directly with me from kickoff to final files. No account managers, no junior hand-offs.
Proud Disabled US Air Force Veteran.
I served, and I'm still serving — now through design, in the community I love, for clients who care. Choosing Benji Does means supporting a Veteran-owned, family-run studio right here in the United States. That support means more than I can say. Thank you.
How I work
Direct, focused, and built around your business — not an agency funnel.
- Discovery first. Before I touch the design software, we talk. About you, your customers, what makes you tick, and what you want this brand to do.
- Real design, no AI slop. Every mark is built by hand with real intent and real craft.
- 30-day turnaround. Fixed-scope packages with unlimited revisions until you're happy.
- Every file you'll ever need. Vector, raster, color, B&W, light, dark — packaged and labeled.
Two decades in design.
In-house art direction, national franchise marketing, freelance for global brands, and a 13-year run as my own studio.
