Rachel first did a discovery session with me where we went into the essence of my company and brand. I could tell right away she was a skilled creative artist who puts her clients first. While we worked together, I felt I could trust her because of her timeliness, responsiveness and willingness to receive feedback. I love my logo! Thank you Rachel.

Rachel, our amazing, amazing designer based out of Fort Collins, CO. She created our brand guidelines, designed the mockups / look-and-feel of the website, did all the illustrations for Galvorn World, made our first promo video, designed new packaging (and led the effort to find a sustainable vendor), new collateral, etc. etc. Her design talent is unparalleled.

The common thread through all her work is the thoughtfulness she puts into her design. You can have a conversation about what you are thinking, she’ll ask questions to dig deeper and understand, and then voila! That thing you wanted, but couldn’t quite envision or articulate is there in front of you. Across the board, Rachel goes above and beyond, seamlessly running with projects once you give her an idea of what you need
