Page Text: The Bible for Normal People Podcast —
Brand Styling, Website Design, Strategy, Merchandise Design, Digital Product Design, Performance
Hear my squeal when I say that I worked with Peter Enns and The Bible for Normal People to reimagine their online presence for the second podcast season. Working together, we've extended the brand through swag, online courses, blog content, podcast promotions, and more. During season two, the podcast has enjoyed a bursting increase in monthly revenue thanks to smart branding, killer website performance, and thoughtful marketing that brings a curious audience more of what they're looking for. That revenue can now be cycled back into hiring staff and creating new programs for wondering wanderers.
Chesapeake Montessori School —
Brand Styling, Website Design, Strategy, Social Media, Performance, Photography Art Direction
With a growing waiting list and expanding programs, Shanna Honan, the Head of School at Chesapeake Montessori, knew it was time for a more sophisticated presence through the website and social media channels. We worked with Wild Heart Films on a photo shoot to capture the look we were going for—rich, deep color reminiscent of Italy, where Maria Montessori was the first female to earn a medical degree and where she began her journey towards influencing and confronting world leaders. Montessori was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize three times, but many believed she was passed over each time because she was too controversial as such a capable woman.
This redesign is a quiet subversive nod to the feminism and social justice efforts of Maria Montessori and a vindication of her prophetic journey which started in Italy and continues today, even in Chesapeake, VA.
EDMARC Hope Gala 2018 —
Brand Styling, Event Marketing Design
This year, I had the pleasure of partnering with Edmarc Hospice for Children in contributing to the experience design for this year's gala event. With a 40th anniversary themed masquerade, there were many concepts to explore. I think we landed on a real gem with this bold color scheme and fun graphic elements to use throughout the assets.
Clapping Dog Media —
strategy, brand styling, website refresh
Meg (my favorite SEO!) pulled me in just as big ideas were swirling around in her incredible brain—she just needed some help executing and making her vision happen through her website. The results will floor you.
During Meg's strategy subscription, we launched an evergreen challenge sequence that grew her list by 62% and converted 2.5% of her audience to purchase a newly developed multi 5-figure mastermind program (industry standard is 1% for a healthy launch).
Tight Knit —
strategy, brand styling, website design
Debra brought me in to help grow her blog into a platform that builds a core community of people around the message she has to share. For her, this was the time to explore adding new contributors, create Buffalo city guides, and experiment with content calendars, email marketing, and giveaways. Her immediate need was to transform the site to one that can handle a more robust content strategy and the growth she expected through 2017.
Hello Media —
strategy, brand styling, website design
While helloglow.co has been a well-established lifestyle blog for years, the Hello Media team was ready to grow their brand with two sister sites dedicated to vegetarian recipes and home-ec for their modern audience. We started with a strategy session to explore opportunities and worked together to expand the brand identity, customize WordPress themes to show off their content, and design graphics for upcoming blog posts.
Lila Ruth Grain Free —
strategy, brand styling, website refresh, landing page design, cookbook design
With a cookbook release in the year ahead, Catherine knew it was time to up her game. Strategizing with her was a true highlight for me as we explore launch strategies and hashed out a plan for the road ahead. First up—she needed a stand-out brand identity to set her apart from the sea of food blogs. Because her blog certainly isn't like any other. With a focus on the Specific Carb Diet and grain-free living, she now has a site that her recipes can call home.
