Hi, I’m Andrea — a freelance graphic designer focused on branding, creative strategy, print, and digital design. My style leans playful, minimal, and elegant, and I love creating work that feels both thoughtful and visually clean. I’ve worked with agencies, consulting teams, and tech companies, but I especially enjoy freelance projects where I can collaborate closely with clients and create truly unique, meaningful experiences — whether that’s through a brand identity, printed piece, or digital product (including websites and apps). I’m also a travel enthusiast and create travel guides on the side, which constantly inspires my work — from design details to storytelling and overall experience.

Are you a lawyer looking to GROW your law firm? What if I told you I don’t just build lead generation campaigns — I build the systems behind them? I help law firms generate consistent cases through legal marketing, AI automation, and full-funnel growth systems built around signed clients, not vanity metrics. I’m a law firm marketing expert with 15+ years of experience helping attorneys grow through Google Ads, Local Service Ads, law firm SEO, GEO/AEO, social media, TV, outdoor advertising, websites, intake optimization, and AI-powered automation systems. I work exclusively with law firms handling personal injury, criminal defense, family law, immigration, estate planning, probate, and other high-value legal matters. Today, law firm growth is not just about “getting more leads.” It is about building a smarter system: ads that attract the right people, websites that convert, intake that follows up fast, SEO that works in Google and AI search, content that builds trust, and automations that keep the entire operation moving without constant manual follow-up. That is where I specialize. I also built Janice, my internal AI-assisted marketing operations system for law firms. Janice helps automate and optimize SEO, reporting, content production, recurring tasks, publishing logs, client workflows, Meta data, team queues, approvals, and marketing accountability. I built it because law firm marketing breaks when ads, SEO, content, intake, reporting, and execution all live in separate places. My expertise brings those pieces together. * Google Ads for Lawyers I build and manage Google Ads, Bing Ads, Local Service Ads, call-only campaigns, pay-per-call campaigns, and law firm PPC systems tracked through Google Tag Manager, CallRail, CRM data, and intake feedback. My campaigns are built around qualified consultations and signed retainers, not just clicks. For law firms, the difference between wasted spend and profitable advertising usually comes down to structure: the right keywords, negative keywords, landing pages, conversion tracking, call quality review, and intake feedback loop. I build that system. * AI Automation for Law Firms I build AI-assisted workflows that help law firms reduce manual work, improve follow-up, organize tasks, and connect marketing activity to real outcomes. This includes AI-powered content workflows, reporting automations, intake routing, task creation, CRM support, call/transcript classification, SEO production systems, review response workflows, Google Sheets automations, Apps Script tools, and AI dashboards. My own system, Janice, supports multiple law firm accounts and a 7-person team by helping manage SEO tasks, content calendars, publishing logs, approvals, reporting, Meta data, and internal work queues. AI should not replace legal judgment. It should reduce friction, improve consistency, and make the firm’s marketing and operations easier to manage. * Law Firm SEO Specialist & GEO/AEO Expert I don’t just “do SEO.” I help law firms show up where people are actually making decisions: Google Search, Google Maps, AI Overviews, ChatGPT-style search, Perplexity, Gemini, and other AI-powered answer engines. My SEO approach includes local SEO, Google Business Profile optimization, technical SEO, schema, structured content, attorney authority signals, practice-area pages, location pages, internal linking, and content designed to be understood by both humans and search engines. Your firm should not just be indexed. It should be seen, understood, trusted, and chosen. * Social Media for Law Firms I’m the law firm social media strategist attorneys hire when they want a serious, consistent, professional presence online. I build social media systems for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Meta Ads. These can be organic, paid, AI-assisted, or fully done-for-you. I also create lifelike HeyGen AI avatars, short-form video systems, attorney authority content, educational posts, reels, captions, and campaigns designed to build recognition and trust over time. The goal is not random posting. The goal is to make the attorney more visible, more recognizable, and more trusted before the consultation ever happens. * Social Media Content Strategy for Law Firms I deliver full-service social media content systems for law firms, including strategy, content calendars, video planning, branded visuals, captions, publishing workflows, and performance review. From monthly content planning to design, scripting, editing direction, posting, and reporting, I help firms stay active and visible without constantly scrambling for ideas. Every piece of content should have a job: build authority, answer a question, create trust, support a campaign, or move a potential client closer to contacting the firm. * TV Ads, Cable Ads, Radio Ads & Jingles for Law Firms I produce and manage TV ads, cable advertising, radio ads, outdoor advertising, billboard campaigns, and custom law firm jin
