WHAT IS IT LIKE TO WORK WITH ME?

Through a complete creative, in-depth process, I’ll be creating your full visual brand identity (not just your logo). You’ll come away with typography, a cohesive color palette, a library of branding elements, and even custom-designed marketing collateral pieces that will help you stay visible, polished, and professional as a brand.

I become your complete partner in design.

How am I different you ask? In the 7 years I have learned that ideas come about spontaneously, which is why I allow you give me feedback and share your ideas every step of the way.

We work together as a team and I provide you with choices throughout our process, so you walk away feeling like your fingerprints are on the design.

As your designer, I am here to create a visual brand that shows the heart and intent behind your business. That all starts with taking the time to listen, understand, and adapt feedback.

1.Discovery

We begin the process with a thorough exploration of your brand foundation — your mission, goals, target audience, and more. Then I will summarize this key information in a brand discovery presentation, including a proposed visual direction and color palette for your new brand.

This ensures that your new brand is highly personalized with strategy and intention. I’ll create something that connects with you and your audience, so it feels deeply resonant on all sides.

2. Design

With a well-defined plan in place, I'll start crafting your brand identity. You'll receive not just one, but two unique branding concepts, giving you a clear vision of what’s possible for your brand. This allows you to select the concept that best aligns with and represents the true essence of your business.

Once you've chosen your preferred concept, I'll move forward with refining and finalizing all of your brand assets, including logo variations, secondary marks and additional design elements. The result? A polished, cohesive, and versatile visual identity that perfectly reflects your brand.

3. Execute

Once your brand identity is established, I’ll create your chosen marketing collateral to ensure cohesiveness and consistency across all platforms. Your brand will not only embody the mission and impact of your business, but each marketing piece will also convey the same strong impression.

Along with your finalized branding files, you’ll receive detailed brand guidelines to help you preserve the integrity of your visual identity. This ensures your brand is consistently and beautifully represented at every touchpoint.
