I'm that weird mix of strategic thinker and creative soul who loves transforming business visions into visual identities that actually work. My marketing degree taught me the science, but my years in the trenches showed me the art of building brands that don't just look good—they perform. With 7+ years of marketing experience, I have launched businesses from scratch and performed strategic and creative marketing tasks for already established businesses. Look, pretty logos are nice, but they're just the tip of the iceberg. Real brand identity digs deeper. It's about creating visual tools that connect with real people, make your business stand out, and drive genuine engagement. When we work together, you're not getting some designer who'll just make things "look pretty"—you're getting a partner who understands the "why" behind every visual choice. What I do: Brand Identity Development 🏗️ - Building brands from absolute scratch - Breathing new life into tired brands - Creating logos that actually mean something - Finding the perfect fonts and colors that tell your story - Crafting guidelines that keep everything consistent Strategic Brand Packages 📊 - Figuring out exactly where you fit in the market - Developing visuals that reflect who you really are - Finding your brand's voice (yes, brands talk too) - Making sure you stand out from the crowd - Organizing complex brand families so they make sense Detailed Brandbooks 📓 - All the core stuff (logo, fonts, colors) - The supporting cast (patterns, icons, images) - How to look awesome on social media - What your print materials should feel like - Market insights that actually inform design - The foundation that holds everything together Extra Brand Goodies ✨ - Telling your brand's story in compelling ways - Creating those little visual details that people remember - Checking how your current brand is performing - Developing additional assets as you grow - Making sure everything feels connected Marketing Smarts 🧩 - Planning your brand's big-picture strategy - Mapping out your marketing game plan - Figuring out how to talk to your people - Crafting messages that resonate - Ensuring every customer touchpoint feels right I've helped all sorts of businesses find their visual voice: - Cafes and restaurants where I probably drank too much coffee ☕ - Retail brands trying to stand out on crowded shelves 🛍️ - Tech companies making complicated stuff simple 💻 - Healthcare folks who needed warmth and professionalism 🏥 - Service businesses looking to build trust 🤝 - Fast-moving consumer goods fighting for attention 🛒 - Nonprofits with big hearts and small budgets 💚 - Construction companies building their reputation 🏗️ - Car service centers revving up their image 🚗 - Professional certification services looking credible 📜 - Clothing brands searching for their style 👕 - Museums making history relevant 🏛️ - Even a dog shelter (my personal favorite) 🐕 My profile Keywords: Brand style guide, brand guidelines creation, brand usage rules, visual identity standards, brand consistency guide, brand manual, logobook development.
