professional design made easy

Easy? Is that possible? Yup, I'm a one-stop shop for businesses, entrepreneurs and career builders who want their design to match the quality of their brand.

This is where drawing all those horses during grade 4 math class got me. I always knew I was destined to do something artsy for a living. As soon as I found out the artsy path meant I didn’t need Grade 12 math I knew I’d found my calling. Really, who uses that stuff in real life? 

Now I’m an art director (like a graphic designer with tons of experience). I specialize in publishing (visual storytelling) and have worked with national magazines like Canadian LivingElle Canada, Style at Home and Canadian Gardening (high-quality content marketing). I take your content and work it into a well-oiled machine. Your great content paired with high-quality design drives engagement, brand loyalty and most everyone's favourite... sales!

I have a keen sense of colour, trends and humour (the sense of humour being my most useful skill for living with 2 teenagers). My cup is always half full, I like happy endings and music I can dance to. I’m authentic and reliable, and I play nice with others.

are we a good fit?

Choosing the right designer can feel like online dating. We don’t need to be soulmates, but we could be collaborating for weeks, months or even going steady. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself to see if I could be your Mrs. Right (designer of choice):

1

When you look through my website and portfolio, does the look and feel of my work speak to you? If we share a similar style or taste it makes it look like I can read your mind.

2

Are you passionate about your business and ready to commit to your brand? Doing a little research and providing good content are key ingredients for great design.

3

Would you like to partner with an experienced art director who can help you strategize, problem solve, shape your brand and make your life easier? 

If you think we may be a good fit, let's chat. If only dating had been this easy!
