Here’s how
I can help

With over 15 years of experience, I specialize in crafting impactful solutions that combine creativity with strategy. My approach is rooted in understanding your business, goals, analyzing data, and delivering designs that don’t just look great but also drive results.

  • A brand audit is the first step toward refining and revitalizing your presence. I’ll take a deep dive into your existing brand to examine what’s working and identify areas for improvement. Through a thorough analysis of your visuals and messaging, I’ll provide clear insights and actionable suggestions. Together, we’ll craft a tailored plan for next steps that will ensure your brand is cohesive, effective, and aligned with your goals.

  • Art direction ensures that every piece of your brand story is told consistently and powerfully. I collaborate with photographers, copywriters, social media teams, and other creatives to bring your vision to life across all channels. Whether it’s shaping the identity of your entire business, orchestrating large-scale campaigns, or creating a cohesive brand book, I make sure everyone is aligned and working toward the same goals.

  • No matter the medium, I focus on crafting visually compelling solutions that align with your brand’s identity and objectives. With a diverse background in designing everything from print materials to digital experiences, I bring a versatile skill set to every project. Whether it’s eye-catching branding, user-friendly websites, engaging packaging, or anything in between, I have the expertise to create designs that speak to your audience.

  • I offer mentorship to young designers and creatives looking to hone their craft, build confidence, and navigate their careers. Whether you're just starting out or looking to take your skills to the next level, I provide personalized guidance, practical advice, and insights into the design world.

  • "I've worked with Chelsea on multiple branding and design projects, and she truly is the best of the best. She's a top-notch designer, but she's so much more than that; she has an incredible ability to take my ideas and translate them into design assets that perfectly capture what I was thinking and trying to achieve. She has brought my vision to life in a way that no one else could—and did I mention that she's incredibly easy and fun to work with? If you have a chance to partner with her, take it."

She hates complacency and is always driving forward towards better work – that not only modernizes brand aesthetic but ultimately delivers results. Chelsea isn’t simply a task taker. Chelsea is a strategic problem solver who can help you think through organizational challenges and find actionable next steps."
