Over the decades and across industries ranging from CPG products and DTC ecommerce, to specialized equestrian sports to enterprise B2B services, I have stepped in as in-house creative lead, art director, and dedicated partner in my proudest moments. Here is what people say about the work when the dust settles.
"We worked with Nicole on a brand refresh project. Nicole and I had worked together previously in the agency world and I have kept tabs on the beautiful work she has continued to do. We called on her to help us creatively and she absolutely did the right thing in digging deep to better understand the strategy first. And she took it a few steps further in challenging and guiding based on her experience. She listened and responded accordingly, was great to work with and we ended up with the strategic and creative brand foundation we needed to help the refreshed brand grow and bloom."

"Nikki has done design work for our restaurant since it's inception. She has provided expert advice and guidance with our social media and marketing strategies, including her own photography work for our promotional pieces. She is a creative thinker with a great eye and the skills to produce unequaled quality in our print and web.

"I came into this process with a few concepts I knew I wanted, but no clue how to make it a reality. Nikki blew me away with the quality of her work and creativity she put into each and every unique design. After we narrowed it down to the perfect logo, she continued to go above and beyond in every way to finish it off with the perfect little enhancements.
She did all this in less time than I would have thought possible. She is reliable, her communication is unsurpassed, and you can tell she truly loves what she does. After the process is over, the support you continue to get from her for your business is just the best feeling ever. She truly wants success for all of her clients. I can’t recommend Nikki highly enough."
