When I was 15, I used my own face to grace mock-up the cover of Vogue. My obsession wasn’t with the glamour of it all, but in the harmonious interplay of typography, layout design, and photography beautifully enhancing the page. I was fascinated by how design could make people feel something and tell a story without just words.

It all started with a splash of design inspiration and mockup magazine covers. 

From Mockup Magazine Covers to Publishing Professional

Over the years, I immersed myself in the world of publishing and design—exploring how visual rhythm guides a reader’s experience. Flipping through magazines, teaching myself Adobe Photoshop/ InDesign, and playing with layout concepts on Friday nights, that early fascination became the foundation for everything I do now.

That hobby turned into a career blending creativity, structure, and storytelling.

Design Rooted in Strategy, Storytelling, and Real Experience

My goal is simple—to create designs that not only look and function beautifully but clearly communicate your value.

With 15+ years of graphic design experience, a master’s degree in publishing, and 7 years in marketing, I’ve built a career at the intersection of creativity and strategy. My goal is simple—to create visuals that not only look beautiful but clearly communicate your value.

Design is more than aesthetics—it’s communication. I focus on creating cohesive, professional visuals that connect emotionally and build trust. Whether it’s a high-end brand identity, a multi-page book layout, or a polished set of Canva templates, every project is rooted in intention and purpose.

With each collaboration, I learn something new. Every project fuels my creativity, deepens my appreciation for my clients’ stories, and reminds me why I love this work.

I’m Michelle, a graphic designer, marketing + publishing professional, and creative entrepreneur based in Austin, Texas. I help creatives and entrepreneurs bring their ideas to life with design that feels cohesive, strategic, and beautifully executed.

Helping Entrepreneurs Build Magnetic Brands

Rewind to 2009: Crafting designs for friends and local organizations—honing a style that’s elegant, clean and bold. Fast forward a few years: I’ve designed and published books, launched my own store with thousands of customers, and worked with remarkable clients. Now, I'm embracing my creative journey.

The allure of fonts, imagery, and the art of creating harmonious layouts from a blank canvas became my new obsession, steering my path toward graphic and layout design.

Graphic Design

As a child, my world of creativity was ignited by illustrations — sketching Disney Princesses, like Ariel from "The Little Mermaid," and pop icons like Lana Del Ray and Katy Perry.
