Lovely to have you stop by! My name is Emma.

MY WHY
Branding work is my specialty and my nerdiest joy. And I do it for you. I do it for the small business. The underdog in a world of Wal-Marts. I'm in it for the small and mighty business that is ready to invest in a brand identity as professional as they are. I'm looking to get the underdogs lined up on the runway with high-level design and get them competing based on their strengths and unique qualities.

I’M ALL ABOUT YOUR BEST.
As your branding specialist, I believe in making the branding process fun, collaborative, and stress-free. This means I trust you with your business, just as you trust me with your branding. It means that I empathetically listen to your goals and needs without being preoccupied with padding out a portfolio or lining pockets. This means I am your advocate, your cheerleader, and your ally. I believe in the best in your business and I am enthusiastically committed to bringing out your strengths in everything I do.

I take a holistic approach to branding, able to work with you on developing a culture in your company that matches your visual identity. Your strengths as a business take center stage and we focus in on those areas that you want to be identified with and known for. We will look at your competition, but they aren’t going to be the focus. I’m here to help you keep your head down and do good work. Show up as your best self.

And even after our work is done, I’m still going to be rooting for you years later.

I’M NOT THE REAL SLIM SHADY, BUT I AM FOR REAL.
I’m a creative soul who wears my heart on my sleeve. You’re never going to get fake with me. The person you meet with over drinks or coffee is the same person you’ll get encouragement from at the ice rink, and an enthusiastic conversation with at the airport. I’m empathetic to a fault, and I love hard. This is the energy I bring to everything I do. Seriously. You should see me tackle a bowl of mac and cheese.

The adventure/aviation theme isn’t just a branding gimmick, it’s a personal passion as I am also pursuing my private pilot license. I started flying in 2019, and fell in love with my flight instructor. We tied the knot in a nerdy-as-hell ceremony at the Ames airport in 2023. Outside of my business, I am a figure skater, a cat lady (servant to Geoffrey Skyhawk deHavilland and Ryan Navion Concorde, cat tax included), and an avid North Dakota hockey and Kentucky basketball fan.
