Graphic design deeply
rooted in community.
Emily is a passionate graphic designer based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, with nearly a decade of design experience deeply rooted in the vibrant community — contributing design expertise to a diverse range of clients from startups to legacy brands to university classrooms.
Her work is shaped by a belief that strong design begins with curiosity, listening, and a clear understanding of purpose. Whether collaborating with local organizations or working with partners beyond the region, Emily values thoughtful process and meaningful relationships as much as the final outcome.
She is drawn to projects that balance strategy and creativity, allowing space for experimentation while staying grounded in intention. In addition to client work, Emily is passionate about education and mentorship, bringing the same care and clarity to teaching that she brings to her design practice. Through each project, she approaches creativity as an evolving conversation — one rooted in community, shaped by collaboration, and guided by the belief that design works best when it serves both people and purpose.
