Liz did a fantastic job on our brand style guide. Her attention to detail and her willingness to collaborate and iterate based on our needs were so greatly appreciated.

Working Together

Although every project is unique, the feedback clients share is remarkably consistent. Clients often describe feeling heard, challenged in the right ways, and confident throughout the process. Whether I'm partnering directly with an organization or joining an agency team, I aim to make the work feel collaborative, thoughtful, approachable, and genuinely enjoyable by asking thoughtful questions, exploring ideas openly, and creating work that feels true to the people and purpose behind it.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Liz for years, and she remains the creative I turn to when something truly matters—when the work needs to not only look beautiful, but feel right. Liz is an artist in the truest sense: her hand-drawn illustrations are stunning, soulful, and unmistakably hers. At the same time, she brings incredible flexibility and fluency to her work—moving seamlessly between mediums, styles, and formats without ever losing intention or impact. Whether we’re building a brand from scratch or reimagining an established identity, she brings creativity, thoughtfulness, and design intelligence to every step. I’ve worked with dozens of designers over the years, and she remains my favorite—for her artistry, her rigor, and the care she brings to everything she touches.

Liz is by far one of the most talented creatives I’ve ever worked with. She is literally a bit of a unicorn in terms of her versatility, thoroughness, commitment, and attitude. She understands all things web, mobile, usability, but also has a natural sense for branding and identity and how those come to life in a number of forms.
