Effective communication is not a skill that everyone has. However, Meng C. LohBSA, has spent 39 years strengthening its commitment to excellence in the areas of marketing and corporate design. He continues to inspire others with his contributions and accomplishments, including well-deserved recognition from the Marquis Who’s Who for his entrepreneurial efforts at all of his creative conferences.
Art Director
Loh has spent almost four decades in his career, demonstrating his success and expertise advertisingtrade, and production. He began his professional journey in 1988 when he studied at Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles. By 1992, he graduated with honors and recognition from the dean’s list, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts in communication skills.
After graduating from Otis College, Loh worked as an art director at Pacific Electric Company until 2002. Soon after, he took his second position as creative director at Prime Wire & Cable Inc. Loh held the directorship until 2018, when he became managing director at Gehr Industries. Along with his professional career, he also invested in his own technology business, Meng Loh Designwhich he runs proudly to this day.
Expertise and Expertise
Loh boasts many years of experience in several fields of technology. His extensive skills include advertising, art, copywriting, photography, photoshop, product design, and marketing. The artist is a highly skilled artist who develops his skills in charcoal and watercolor techniques.
As Loh hones his skills in the field, he sees changes in trends and innovations in recent years. He added that business changes “based on how design and technology have changed.” He explains that artificial intelligence (AI) and emerging applications have become increasingly popular in the industry.
After that, Loh has been working to incorporate AI into his other creations. “A lot of people are worried that AI will take their jobs,” but the art director’s opinion on the matter differs from the crowd. They believe that AI empowers work to have better experiences related to time, human interaction, and change of mind. Loh believes that AI can provide flexibility and support, ultimately saving time and money.
Essential Education
While working at Gehr Industries, Loh handles his day-to-day tasks on his own. There are no artists directly under him. In contrast, his time at Pacific Electricord allowed him to mentor and guide others, going from design to design in just four years.
Loh’s people skills were a deciding factor in his early success. He realized that staying honest while learning and growing from his experiences and mistakes ultimately defined his career in the industry.
From Challenge to Success
Loh initially entered the US as a foreigner, placing himself with unique challenges in an industry that places its priorities elsewhere. Despite the obstacles he faced, he pushed himself to achieve his goals, hoping to inspire others to do the same. Regardless of his upbringing, he chose to do well in the US rather than let the chips fall as he might if he chose to stay in his home country.
Loh wants her experience to empower those who don’t get the encouragement they need from family members, a problem she understands all too well.
A Vision for the Future in Creative Marketing
Going forward, Loh hopes to encourage people who feel hopeless about their careers. He wants to encourage artists around the world to “persevere in adversity without giving up.”
Loh says, “Anyone can succeed if they are strong and willing to try.” She believes her story can empower others to follow a similar path.
