I wouldn't be me without the wonderful clients and colleagues that I have worked with over the years. Many of them have become true friends and I appreciate their kind words.
The longer I live, the more beautiful life becomes.
If you foolishly ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it will remain with you all the days of your life.

Looking for a seasoned graphic designer? Look no further than Lori! I had the pleasure of working with Lori at BISSELL, and she was a valuable colleague, both in daily work and special projects. She is devoted to her work, striving for excellence with all her projects, making sure to balance timely completion with quality deliverables. The designs she creates are top-notch and never stop short of fulfilling any requirement. She brings a wealth of experience and a strong attention to detail to her work. Even better, she is a great person, quick to listen and easy to interact with, a fantastic team-player, not rushing to judgment but open to getting all the specs first, as well as responding to feedback in further revisions. At BISSELL, she and I were involved with a team that planned a divisional summit meeting. Because the 2024 Paris Olympics were on the horizon, it was an Olympic-themed meeting, both with activities and visual aesthetic. In designing our slide templates, name tags and table tents, Lori towed a perfect line between avoiding copyright issues while still remaining faithful to the visual spirit of the Olympics, along with a few French touches thrown in. Further, she provided the ideas for both offering (simulated) gold medals, as well as offering a gift of an Eiffel Tower keychain to all attendees. She was instrumental in ensuring the success of our summit meeting! Whether you need to fill an opening or fulfill a short-term design need, Lori is the designer for you!

I had the pleasure of having Lori on the team at BISSELL, where she proved to be an essential part of the creative group. Lori brings a sharp eye for design, with strong craft in both graphics and typography. Her ability to assess a brief, understand the strategic intent, and translate it into compelling visual concepts, while staying firmly on brand and on brief, is truly impressive. Lori has a strong ability to carry work from concept through to final production across a range of media. Whether the execution was digital, print, or environmental, she brought consistency, polish, and thoughtful attention to every detail. Lori is a dependable and versatile creative who consistently delivers high-quality work that meets both brand standards and business goals. Any team would benefit from her combination of creative talent, strategic thinking, and production know-how.

One of her greatest strengths is her willingness to jump in and support the team wherever needed – no matter the scope or complexity of the project. Her talent is truly untapped in terms of how much she can do, making her an invaluable asset to any creative team. Beyond her design expertise, Lori is a pleasure to work with – friendly, professional, and always reliable.
