My
Values
Design for Every body. Business for Everyone.
This isn't a legal disclaimer tucked into my footer. It's a real statement about who I am, who I work with, and what I believe — said out loud, on purpose, and in the brightest colors I've got.
Who I stand with
This is an inclusive studio. I work with humans. All kinds of them. Your identity, background, who you love, how you show up in the world, what your body looks like, where you come from, what you believe — none of that changes the quality of work I bring to your project or the respect I bring to our relationship.
Good design doesn't discriminate and neither do I.
I'm gonna name names because being vague isn't allyship. These are the communities I actively and enthusiastically welcome, affirm, and support: LGBTQIA+ individuals, trans and nonbinary people, BIPOC communities, people with disabilities, neurodivergent folks, immigrants and first-gen business owners, women and femme entrepreneurs, people of all faiths (and none), body diverse individuals, single parents and caregivers building something of their own.
If you've ever walked into a room and wondered if you belonged there, then you belong here.
The Short Version -
You're welcome here. full stop.
But what does that actually look like?
My pledge in practice
I will use your correct name and pronouns
Every time, without being weird about it. Just tell me. I'll update my notes and we'll carry on.
I will not work with brands that harm
I reserve the right to decline projects that spread hate, discrimination, or harm toward any community. It's not censorship. It's integrity.
I will never out-price inclusion
I believe great design should be accessible. If budget is a real barrier, let's talk. I'd rather find a creative solution than turn away someone who needs good work done.
I will keep learning
I don't have everything figured out. I'm committed to listening, growing, and doing better — and I welcome being corrected when I get it wrong.
I will amplify marginalized voices
In my work, my referrals, and who I lift up in my community. Inclusion doesn't stop at my studio door. Inclusion is what I do once people are inside.
I will make space for real conversations
If something about our working relationship isn't feeling right, I want to know. Working with me should be a safe, open creative process.
Being an Ally in Indiana
I'm a small business owner living in the middle of nowhere in the rural mid-west. I know that being visibly inclusive in certain spaces takes a little something extra. I also know that the people who need to see businesses like mine are often marginalized communities in places like mine. And we don't always do a great job of telling you that you're welcome here, so I'm saying it. I'm going to say it loudly for the bigots in the back. This is part of my brand. It's a part of my website, socials, and other online presence. I'm not trying to be the loudest voice in the room. I just want every person who lands here to know that their business, identity, and vision are safe with me.
Context Matters
And Another thing
If you've been burned before...
I know that in working with some designers and agencies you can feel like an afterthought, had to explain yourself in spaces where you shouldn't have to, or never seen yourself reflected in the brands and studios you've worked with. But I see you. And, I'm building something different. I hope you'll give me the chance to show you what that looks like.
Thank You!
