Dat Le is a team-oriented art director and designer based in Houston.

For over a decade, Dat has worked with leading agencies, creating thoughtful, effective design solutions that help clients achieve their goals.

He enjoys thinking through the big picture while staying involved in the day-to-day work, helping projects move from concept to finished design.

Outside of work, Dat is probably repping the Philadelphia Eagles—football season or not.

You can find him in the driveway with his daughter, sketching colorful chalk dinosaurs, or crouching around the aisles of his local library, hunting for books to share with her.

Above all, he seeks to grow closer to Jesus Christ each day.

Experience

  • Love Advertising is a one of Houston’s longest-running independent ad agencies.

    After a career hiatus, I was grateful for the opportunity to join a talented team as a Senior Designer.

    I am currently contributing to a variety of clients such as Phillips 66, 76, ENGIE Resources, CenterPoint Energy and more.

  • Langrand is a creative think tank, specializing in strategy, design and the spaces where they intersect.

    I led day-to-day creative and production efforts for B2B healthcare and public sector clients, including Anthem BlueCross BlueShield.

    Over time, I became the longest-tenured full-time team member and took on a leadership role within the creative department. I was responsible for facilitating weekly team meetings—guiding thoughtful discussions, encouraging collaboration, and strengthening cross-functional cohesion.

    In 2022, I took time away from my professional career to focus on being a full-time stay-at-home father following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Client portfolio includes: Anthem BlueCross BlueShield, METRORail, BHP, DNOW, Houston ISD, Teach For America, HCA Healthcare, Harris Health System, United Airlines and more

  • Richards/Carlberg was a Houston-based satellite agency of The Richards Group.

    Joining the team directly out of college as a full-time Art Director Intern, I quickly gained practical, cross-functional experience by collaborating closely with all departments across the agency. The small team structure provided an immersive environment that accelerated my creative development and strategic understanding.

    Client portfolio includes: Wingstop, River Oaks Donuts, Mahindra Tractors, Buffalo Bayou Partnership, Lone Star College, Central Texas College, University of Houston-Clear Lake and more

  • B.S. Advertising + Business Foundations Certification

    I completed Texas Creative, a world-renowned creative advertising portfolio program housed within the Stan Richards School of Advertising & Public Relations. I collaborated closely with copywriters to develop campaigns from initial concept all the way through execution.
