Everyone has an authentic self.
Your business is an extension of that.
WHY WORK WITH ME…
When designing I like to take a personal and intentional approach, crafting solutions that are truly unique for each business I work with. I strive to understand and capture a company’s essence, bringing it to life in a way that feels genuine. My goal with every project is to create designs that are timeless, engaging and welcoming.
My experiences in art, graphic design and marketing have shaped my perspectives on designing brands. While my support of women in creative, wellness and holistic businesses encourages me to create thoughtful and authentic designs for the very women that offer services and products that I am naturally drawn to. Working collaboratively with my clients to create their brand visions and ensuring they love their new designs inspires me.
Your brand is so much more than an item on your to do list. Your brand is the first impression that your business makes. It’s the foundation for your services or products. Prioritizing your brand, so it reflects your expertise, what you stand for and the future you wish to create intentionally attracts clients who truly value you.
I can help you achieve this for your business.
Your story, your struggles, and your perspective are foundational to the work you are meant to do in this world. This is what makes you remarkable and unlike anybody else. When you are able to translate that into a brand that you share with others, it allows you to spread your message to the people who need it most.
I believe…
If you are following your own authentic path you will naturally attract the people you wish to connect with.
We all benefit from sharing our talents and gifts with one another.
We each have the ability to contribute our own version of beauty to the world.
Your life’s purpose matters and creating an aligned brand for your business will allow that purpose to flourish.
Your brand should feel as good as it looks.
There is great value in integrating beauty and authenticity into the brands that surround us.
Every entrepreneur should have a brand they can be proud of, no matter where they are on their journey.
You can feel inside that it’s time for a change. But you wonder if you really need a thought out visual style for your business?
An outdated or poor quality brand style isn’t communicating your expertise and value. Updating your look could help you attract clients and create revenue for your growing business.
Whether you started out with quick “get it done” clip art designs or have a brand that you have outgrown and no longer supports your vision, chances are you’re most likely limiting the kind of growth you could be experiencing with a custom brand presence that people can’t help but be drawn to.
If you want to be seen by your aligned community, you need to give them something to look at. That’s where I can help. Together we will discover what style you want your business to embody, so you can draw in the right people, who honestly have been looking for you this whole time.
Your business has so much potential to grow and attract your ideal clients who can’t wait to work with you, don’t doubt the value in your prices, and see you as the obvious choice.
Hey there! I’m Carissa…
PROUD MAMA OF THREE YOUNG BOYS, ARTIST AND GRAPHIC DESIGNER. I GREW UP ON THE COAST OF MAINE, NOW I SPEND MY DAYS IN THE MOUNTAINS OF VERMONT. I LOVE TO GROW FLOWERS, DECORATE MY HOME, DRINK HIBISCUS TEA AND OBSESS OVER PUFFY WHITE CLOUDS AND SUNSETS.
After 15 years working in graphic design agencies building my design skills, and several years staying home to raise my boys I found myself in a place where I deeply missed having my own creative outlet — and the time and space to nurture my own self-care.
Through much exploration I discovered that I wanted to blend the worlds of graphic design and fine art. I love both, but my experiences for some reason kept separating the two. This realization has allowed me to create my own path and define my own personal style and brand.
By supporting the community of women who have inspired me along my journey of creativity and self-care, I am able to honor my values, nurture my own wellness, and maintain my autonomy.
I am able to explore my creativity in a way that enables other women to grow and find beauty within their business and ultimately themselves.
I’m the lady who buys wine purely for the label on the front of the bottle, transfers hand soap into cute little glass jars and buys too many throw pillows and candles just because they make my space feel cozy and pretty. These little details bring me calmness in a world often filled with overstimulating visuals. Your branding deserves to give people that same feeling of comfort.
