And I really love that I can use my gifts, skills, and talents to help other moms feel confident and excited about their brand, business, and website. I’m thrilled you’re here, and I can’t wait to bring your business dreams to life!

I love this field. 

My love for design began at a young age when I used to cut apart Pottery Barn magazines so I could rearrange and redecorate rooms. I thought I would be an interior designer until I got to high school and learned about graphic design. From there, I took every design and art class I could – majoring in graphic design and marketing at The University of Dayton before graduating and taking a corporate design job at a marketing agency.

(Not a mom? You’re always welcome here!)

Hi, I’m Mary! I’m a designer focused on brand and website design for ambitious moms who run their own businesses. 

I’m so glad you’re here!

Because I know that you take your work seriously. You have big dreams and plans for your business and your family, and I want to be the designer who helps you stand out, look professional, and feel confident enough to charge what you’re worth.

This is why I love designing for moms.

In 2022, we were blessed with a sweet baby boy, and I’m so grateful for his joyful presence in my life! But all of this – from building a business to navigating infertility to being a new mom – taught me that moms (whether you are one now, dream of being one some day, or aren’t sure exactly what your future will hold) are a force to be reckoned with.

Instead of designing brands and websites while raising a baby, I found myself using my flexible schedule to help me navigate the all-consuming experience of infertility. Endless doctor’s NaPro appointments, medication regimens, and injections… it was a lot.

I initially started my design business so I could stay home with my future kids. I knew I wanted the flexibility and freedom to raise my children and stay creatively engaged. And while building my business went pretty smoothly, it took a lot longer to get pregnant than I originally anticipated.

Moms are amazing – that’s just a given. But there’s a bigger reason for my focus on this incredible group of women.
