Hugh Blaisdell — Senior Pharma UI & Art Director

Deep pharma.

Zero Ramp-up.

I'm Hugh Blaisdell, a senior art supervisor and UI designer with years of pharmaceutical advertising experience. I've worked across oncology, rheumatology, vaccines, dermatology, and more for leading brands and agencies. I know the regulatory constraints, the MLR process, and the visual systems. I know what a creative director needs the night before a presentation. I'm a US citizen based globally, and I structure my day around yours so you wake up to finished work.

18 years of pharma creative

I've worked across nearly every indication and major brand in the industry. No orientation needed. I understand MLR, fair balance, ISI constraints, and the difference between what medical wants and what works creatively.

Working while your team sleeps

I align my working hours to US and UK agency timelines. Your team leaves a brief. I execute over your night. You arrive to finished work, not a status update.

UI-heavy execution, built to scale

I build design systems that are clean, efficient, and developer ready, so we can spend more time creating beautiful creative.

US-based, globally operational

US citizen. US mailing address. US payroll-ready. I embed seamlessly into agency and in-house environments.

Selected Work

"On top of being a fantastic creative talent, he’s excellent as a remote teammate who can lead efforts across the globe while the east coast sleeps. When you need work to continue around the clock, we could always trust him when we passed the baton his way."

David Ferguson

SVP Creative Director | Innovation

Healthcare Consultancy Group

"Few people in this industry combine Hugh's level of pharma knowledge with genuine design craft. He understands the regulatory environment, the MLR process, and what it takes to make work that is both beautiful and compliant. That combination is genuinely rare."

Garry Harper

SVP, Creative Director

FCB Health

"Hugh brings a rare combination of senior creative instinct and technical precision to every project. At HCG he consistently delivered polished, regulation-aware design across complex pharma accounts, often under tight deadlines and across time zones. A genuinely reliable creative at the top of his craft."
