What if you could learn how to master Illustrator and develop your own branding logo?

Your budget would be super happy, right?

I’m here to help with my over 20 years of graphic design experience.

Not everyone can afford a brand designer, but everyone deserves a gorgeous logo!

Do any of these sound familiar?

You love good design, and you want to implement it as part of your brand, but you just can’t afford to hire a designer? Or, maybe you want to do it yourself, but trying to wrap your brain around Photoshop seems daunting? You’re ready to create gorgeous designs and printables for your business growth. It’s time!

When it comes to being in business for yourself, you’re:

  • Overwhelmed with trying to do it all, but you just don’t have the budget to hire a graphic designer every time you need something new created for your blog or marketing your new product.
  • Struggling with wrapping your brain around the inner workings of Photoshop, but want to get to a place where you are confident and capable of whipping out new social media sharing graphics and printables for your email opt-ins without the graphic designer education.
  • Ready to streamline your designs so that they match your brand message, and are easy to duplicate for consistency so that you’re providing amazing visuals to accompany your content.

You love good design. You’ve worked hard to create a business idea that you just know will be banging, but you’re feeling intimidated by all of the amazing brand identities out there done by top designers, and you can’t afford to hire them too.

You want to be able to design your own logo in Photoshop because you:

  • Are serious about your blog or business - you want to take the time to evaluate your brand and create an identity that makes sense.
  • Want to attract the right target audience to your business. Good design is important to you.
  • Can’t spend the money to hire a designer at this time.

Plus, learning how to use a graphic design program like Adobe Illustrator is useful for your business!

If you can relate to any of the above, you’re in the right place. Just keep reading!
