STRATEGICALLY MINDED.

No Hand-offs. No Juniors. Just Results.
In the agency world, there is a common “bait-and-switch.” You meet with the senior team during the pitch, but once the contract is signed, your project is handed off to a junior designer who is still finding their footing.
Tremble Design Studio is different. When you work with me, you are getting nearly 20 years of high-level industry experience from start to finish. I am the name on the door, your lead strategist, and your sole designer. You get the caliber of work you’d expect from a big firm with the direct, dedicated partnership only a solo studio can provide.
From the Trenches to the Boardroom
I didn’t just wake up one day and call myself an expert. I earned that title by working every seat at the creative table:
- The Technical Roots: I spent over a decade in the trenches as a designer and senior designer. I mastered the “how” of the industry—typography, complex layouts, and the technical precision required for high-stakes print and digital projects.
- The Strategic Leadership: For five years, I served as a Creative Director, leading multi-disciplinary teams of designers and videographers. This is where I mastered the “why.” I learned how to align creative vision with business revenue and how to manage large-scale brand systems for organizations that couldn’t afford to fail.
- The Author Advantage: Beyond the studio, I am a published author. I know what it feels like to have a vision and the vulnerability it takes to share it with the world. I bring that “both-sides-of-the-desk” perspective to every author and entrepreneur I partner with.
The “Shoulder-to-Shoulder” Philosophy
I believe that design shouldn’t be a “black box” where you send a request and hope for the best.
My approach is collaborative and intentional. We start with your business goals—not just your favorite colors. Whether we’re building a brand for a nonprofit, designing a high-stakes annual report, or launching your next book, I am right there with you. I provide the agency-grade strategy you need and the one-on-one dedication you deserve.
The Human Behind the Studio
While my professional life is spent in front of dual monitors and 4TB of high-performance tech, my personal life is decidedly tactile.
I’m a self-professed Stationery Nerd who finds deep joy in fountain pens and ink swatches. If I’m not in the studio, I’m likely playing with art supplies, crocheting something cozy, hunting for treasures at a local thrift store, or planning my next cruise.
I live in the Great Lakes Bay Region of Michigan with my cat, Pounce, who serves as the unofficial (and rambunctious) Studio Manager.
I’m a firm believer in the 1980s cinematic genius of John Hughes and the idea that, in business and in life, strategy is the bridge between where you are and where you want to be.
