a graphic designer & developer
I love working with teams and businesses to pull projects together. Whether it's a freelance project with a startup business or a corporate ecommerce team, I believe communication is key to effective design and development.
I can design and create your wordpress blog using the best blog design practices and SEO strategy. I also offer wordpress blog training.
I am a front end developer skilled in HTML, CSS, Javascript, jQuery and Bootstrap/Foundations frameworks. I create beautiful, professional websites resulting in SEO friendly code.
Not sure how to get started with social media? I can help you set up your social media accounts, link them all together, and maintain them.
From social media graphics to branding and identity design, I've got you covered. I have a BFA in digital art and design and 7 years of freelance design experience.
I am a freelance website designer/developer and graphic designer in Benton, Arkansas. My specialties include website design, front-end web development, identity and startup collaboration. In other words - I can design your logo, print materials, web graphics, social media goodies, help you figure out what you need to get started, build you a useable, user-friendly and responsive website and maintain it for you.
My primary tools include: Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and Sublime Text, and I'm also fluent in Dreamweaver, InDesign and have some Flash experience. I can code CSS (SASS), HTML, and Javascript with some basic working PHP knowledge, and I’m familiar with numerous libraries (bootstrap, jQuery, foundations frameworks, etc).
When I’m not creating clever things on the computer, I can be found in a fort with my 2 lovely daughters, Olivia and Nora, hoofing it on a trail or knitting something fuzzy. I love coffee, travel, dancing/yoga and reading.
Brand planning and UX design
Light Design - this project was designed to represent a new web tool for architects and building designers. Included in the design were the brand identity, guidelines, gallery website (mobile-first UX design) and a solution for client requests and project managers to collaborate.
Brand planning and development
I started working with John Vincent of Wellness Revolution in 2010. He was at Chenal Chiropractic at the time, but had a vision to create a one-stop-shop wellness center encompassing chiropractic, massage, nutrition, personal training, crossfit and yoga in a family-friendly setting.
We started with the logo, and we've since launched several campaigns: Build the Box, Women Wine and Wellness, Clean and Mean in 2016, Wellness Revolution Olympics and many more.
I've tackled many big projects for Wellness including wall art, tent design, car wrap design, all of their print graphics, apparel and social media imaging.
