Charles Spady

Charles Spady grew up on the East Coast, splitting his early creative years between Philadelphia and New York before carving out a bold new chapter in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he now lives and builds his brand. From the jump, Charles was the kid who could draw anything he saw — the one people came to when they wanted something to look right. That spark turned into a full-blown career.

​

He studied graphic design at the Art Institute of Philadelphia, earning both his Associate and Bachelor’s degreesbefore launching into professional design work in New York City. In 2011, he founded OCD-STUDIOS, and over the last decade, he’s evolved it into a creative force specializing in branding, digital media, visual storytelling, and large-format design.

​

Today, Charles is pursuing to earning his Master’s degree in Public Relations from Full Sail University, leveling up from “designer” to strategic communicator and brand architect. Public relations grabbed him because it’s the intersection of story, visuals, and influence — the stuff he’s been naturally doing his whole life. For him, PR isn’t spin; it’s connection. It’s shaping narratives, building trust, and creating experiences that actually move people.

​

With 20+ years of design experience, a growing portfolio of multimedia campaigns, and real-world collaborations with organizations like the SinCity Chamber of Commerce, Pinkbox Doughnuts, Pride Fort Lauderdale, and regional nonprofits, Charles brings a hybrid skill set most creatives don’t: design precision + PR strategy + storytelling with impact.

 

Clients trust him because he doesn’t do surface-level work. He digs in. He builds consistent brands, strong messages, clean visuals, and campaigns that feel modern, human, and intentional. Whether it’s web, print, video, social, or full-scale PR initiatives, Charles brings that “no rules, no limits” energy to everything he touches.
