How a wedding turned into a business (seriously)

A degree-educated Illustrator and Graphic Designer, I specialise in small business branding. Before diving into design full-time, I spent years teaching Graphic Communication, Media, and Film Studies, helping students develop their own creative and analytical skills.
Everything changed when I got married. I designed and planned my entire wedding — from the save the dates to the on-the-day signage — and realised how fulfilling it was to create my own work for a change. I loved every part of the process, especially designing a sentimental “3 of clubs” logo to brand the event. The symbol became so special that my husband and I later got matching tattoos of it in Vegas on our honeymoon. It’s now a core part of my business identity.
That experience reignited my love for design and inspired me to turn my creativity into a business. After moving to California with my husband, Tom, he came on board as Director of Operations, helping connect with clients and keep things running smoothly. That means I get to focus on what I love most: bringing your story to life through thoughtful, collaborative design.

Industries I’ve worked with
I’m a sucker for a small biz story — the ones built from kitchen tables, market stalls and big dreams. Whether you’re just getting started or already stocked on shelves, I love helping brands grow with design that looks as good as it feels.
So far, I’ve helped bring brand stories to life across: coaching & therapy, food & drink, health & fitness, Skincare & fragrance, pet lifestyle.
