    I'm an expert-level designer with 7 years experience working in design & marketing. I offer integrated, thoughtful graphic services for organizations and individuals who want to create clear, impactful, and inspiring design. ___ Brand-management means everything from logo design, to environmental graphics, to web design, to social media and marketing strategy. I focus on your business' goals and intention first, and then the design will follow. I started my career working closely with local businesses, large universities, and mission-oriented non-profits. I created integrated graphic design: everything from logos, to newsletters and annual reports, to email templates. When I began freelancing, I worked closely with small business in fine art, entertainment, and food & beverage. After moving to NYC, I’ve continued to work with large arts organizations in digital & print. I really enjoy taking on comprehensive small-business branding projects, and have worked with language schools, a woman’s health organization, a millennial pajama company, first-time authors, and many more.
