That depends! Branding is essential for providing structure, direction, and strategy for any design project. You might be expected to put in more work up front — more research, more time spent on content, additional design inspiration research, etc. — if you want to create something new without proper branding.

I’ll work with just about any printer or producer you prefer. If you’re in the Asheville area or are open to having your completed products shipped to you, I highly recommend my long-time partners at Advantage Direct Printing.

Absolutely! I offer custom Squarespace websites and, if you book the Premium Branding + Website Package, you’ll receive a discount for taking two big leaps forward towards awe-inspiring professionalism.

Absolutely! All of my flat rate projects have the option to be paid through periodic payment plans after the initial deposit is paid. Hourly projects also require a deposit and are invoiced periodically throughout the project.

The short answer? No. You are the expert for your business and only you can provide the necessary information to communicate your story effectively. I do offer some copywriting assistance when crafting physical and digital materials upon request, but if you feel you need real, more intense assistance, please consider working with a professional copywriter.

Like most designers, I do not offer native files automatically for any of my projects. This is to avoid degradation of the quality of any materials and to protect me from loss of business. If your project requires native files, an additional fee may be applied, but only at my discretion.

Many designers focus on a specific style that they replicate with their client projects and over again. I don’t offer that kind of service. Why? Because I view branding as a collaborative process, meaning that my clients play a big role in every design project. My style is often colorful and often has a retro twist, but all of my branding projects end up looking completely unique because every client was completely unique.

I typically don’t work within a particular field or industry exclusively, but I have a particular affinity for working with creatives. And by creative, I mean ALL kinds of creatives (not just artists). Music organizations, art galleries, non profits, food + beverage, advocacy groups… my experience crosses a wide range of industries, each new client challenging me to find a new perspective and solve unique problems.
