Award-winning brand and digital agency, powered by data and driven by strategy.

VANCOUVER, BC — [May 1, 2025] — Carter Hales Design Lab (CHDL), the award-winning brand and digital agency founded by 30-year industry veteran Sean Carter, is entering an exciting new chapter with the addition of senior leaders Tavis Yeung, a data and digital strategist, and Jenny Duncan, a seasoned brand and communications expert.

While CHDL’s foundation in award-winning design and digital work remains unchanged, the agency now offers a deeper, more comprehensive approach to solving business challenges through brand – uniting bold creative, strategic insight, and data-driven marketing. The integration of strategy and advanced digital capabilities builds on what clients already value about CHDL: creativity, responsiveness, and a people-first mindset.

“We’re still the same team of people our clients know and trust,” said Founder and Design Director Sean Carter. “But with Tavis and Jenny joining us, we’re now bringing greater strategic depth and digital intelligence into everything we do. Plus, they’re our kind of people”

Longtime collaborators of the agency, both Yeung and Duncan bring a shared vision and a history of working seamlessly with the CHDL team. Their arrival strengthens the agency’s ability to deliver results that are not just visually compelling but strategically smart—using AI-powered tools, brand insight, and human-centered thinking to move the needle for clients.

“I’ve worked on the client side with CHDL for more than 10 years and they have always balanced creativity with a deep respect for client goals,” said Duncan. “I’m thrilled to get to join the in-house team and bring more strategic business, brand and communications work to the agency.”

Whether launching a brand, refining communications, or scaling digital performance, CHDL now offers an integrated, senior-led team that blends the analytical with the artistic, the technical with the human.

Proudly Canadian and independently owned, CHDL is redefining what an integrated agency with a boutique feel can do—while staying true to the creative roots and client partnerships that built its name.
