I am a co-owner of Design Kompany, a creative business branding service based out of Capitol Hill. We talk to small business owners like you, and find out about what you do, what you like, and what you care the most about. We have a method that translates all your thoughts and ideas into visual communication that gets your brand across.

I am best at synthesizing ideas and thoughts into a Big, Bad, New Idea and fitting it into the big picture. My team has members specialized in creating striking imagery, coming up with tight, punchy copies, and photographing beautiful moments. Together, Design Kompany is best at figuring out what your business's core message is, and execute that message effectively, be it through your web site, business identity or an ad campaign.

We would love to work with small businesses and startups that are ready to take their businesses to the next level with a professional image. We are also always on the lookout for skilled artists of all disciplines.

M.S. in Parks, Recreation and Tourism Management (with Event Management concentration and Graphic Design minor) at North Carolina State University.

I have managed marketing department of three small companies for the combined 7 years, while running Design Kompany on the side. Now I have been running the business full-time for three years.

Design Kompany has worked with a local Japanese restaurant, created a brand for renowned glass artist, re-branded a local design firm, branded a dog day care business in Portland, and created the logo for Capitol Hill Chamber of Commerce.
