Graphic Design

Engage the head and the heart of your audience through powerful visual design.

Great design has the ability to engage viewers on an emotional level and shift how they think, who they trust, and what they choose to support. It can have a powerful impact on how our work is understood in the world. 

To use this power effectively requires more than just digital tools.  It requires an understanding of brand strategy, design principles, and the best practices that produce an exceptional finished product. 

I design artful and strategic brand assets for organizations that value both visual impact and big-picture thinking. I’m especially drawn to organizations committed to ethical marketing, environmental stewardship, and work that meaningfully improves lives.

How can I help?

Stand-alone Graphic Design Projects

Senior-level design, right when you need it.

Complete your custom print or digital design project quickly and efficiently, with on-brand visuals and high quality execution.  

Need help with messaging, photo editing, or adapting a design for use across various media?  I can do that, too.

A stand-alone project is the right approach if:

You have a one-time or occasional need for professional design on a high-impact project. 

You’re clear on your goals for the project, have the brand assets and standards to support it, and are ready to get it done.

You want to explore how a professional graphic designer can add value to your work, but aren’t quite ready for a monthly plan.

Stand-alone graphic design projects are available on a limited basis for clients who already have an established brand. There are a few essential requirements for a successful one-off project. 

  • Brand clarity. A design that delivers on your goals starts with a cohesive, on-brand visual concept. I’ll first review your brand identity and standards to make sure they provide a solid foundation for our project. In some cases, a Brand Critique may be recommended as a necessary first step.
  • A clear scope. We’ll start with a call to define the scope and visual direction that will best fulfill your goals for the piece. I’ll summarize it in a project brief for your approval before I begin the work.
  • A concise timeline. Stand-alone projects are scheduled for a specific time period—usually 1 to 3 days—when we can both devote sufficient time and focus to the project. You’ll need to supply any necessary assets before work can begin, and be prepared to provide decisive, real-time feedback during scheduled work sessions.

Minimum project fee $750. A custom quote will be provided for your project. 

Businesses that need design support on a regular basis get the most value from an ongoing Creative Partnership.
