Your business is one of a kind, and it deserves design that’s smart, professional, and just as unique as you. I work with small businesses that want more than pretty visuals—they want designs that reflect who they are and how they want to grow.
All the details you need, straight to your inbox.
Your brand isn’t just a logo, and it definitely isn’t some random Canva template. 👀 It’s the way people ‘get’ your business in second and decide whether they want to stick around. I’ll help you figure out what works, what doesn’t, and what makes your business impossible to ignore. Then, we’ll create visuals that look amazing, support your vision, and actually help you grow.
Your website isn’t just there to look pretty (though it will look 🎀 magical 🎀); it’s there to get things done. Whether you’re selling handmade candles or booking Pilates classes, I’ll design a site that feels good to use (for you and your customers), works smoothly, and doesn’t make you want to throw your laptop out the window. WordPress or Shopify—it’s up to you.
Hiring a designer can feel like a lot. My job is to make it feel simple, clear, and even a little fun. Here’s how we’ll do it:
Think of this as a casual convo about your business: What’s working? What’s not? What do you actually need? No awkward jargon, no overcomplicated questionnaires—just a real conversation. No strings attached.
This is where I roll up my sleeves and start creating. You’ll see drafts, ideas, and updates along the way, so nothing feels like a surprise (or a guessing game).
When your branding or website is ready, I’ll hand over everything you need to hit the ground running—and stick around to make sure you’re comfortable using it.
The pricing guide has all the details about what’s included, how it works, and what you can expect when we work together. It’s your next step to getting a brand or website that actually works for your business.
I design brands and websites for small businesses that are tired of doing everything themselves and are ready to look like the next big thing. With years of experience working with independent businesses, I specialize in creating thoughtful branding and websites on WordPress and Shopify—because they’re the best for businesses that need reliability and flexibility. I don’t just create pretty designs and call it a day. I balance strategy with creativity to make sure your branding feels smart, your website works seamlessly, and the process doesn’t leave you pulling your hair out. I’ll keep you in the loop every step of the way—no weird surprises, no last-minute panic. When I’m not designing, you can usually find me hanging out with my two cats (aka my unofficial project managers), rewatching my favorite musicals, or exploring my adopted home of Prague. I can't wait to hear all about your dreams—and help them come true!
