Hi. Hello. Hey there.

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. 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.

I’M NOT THE REAL SLIM SHADY, BUT I AM FOR REAL.
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. In my free time, I also enjoy rock climbing, backpacking, playing with my cats (Geoffrey Skyhawk deHavilland and Ryan Navion Concorde), and watching North Dakota hockey and Kentucky basketball.
