The founder and heart behind Golden Designs Co. The name? Inspired by my two golden retrievers, who remind me daily what joy, loyalty, and a good dose of playfulness can bring to life (and to design).
Fueled by creativity, caffeine, and a deep love for small business stories, I started Golden Designs after five and a half years in the design world. At the time, I was working full-time as a Marketing Director for a real estate franchise - running the marketing department by day and freelancing by night. When I had to sign a non-compete, it stopped me in my tracks. That’s when I realized design wasn’t just part of my career - it was what I wanted my whole career to revolve around.
So I went all in. I pursued my Master’s in Marketing, left the corporate world behind, and built this business from the ground up. Over the last two years, I found my sweet spot: creating strategic, hand-drawn brand identities that help small businesses stand out and feel like themselves.
Today, over seven years of experience later with a Master’s in Marketing (Liberty University) and a background in digital strategy and advertising, I blend storytelling with strategy to design brands that connect, captivate, and grow with you.
