Marketing & Communications Graphic Design Brand Identity Social Media Event Marketing Nonprofit Marketing

I build brands people feel. I design the campaigns, social content and print that connect organizations with their communities, then help run the events that bring everyone through the door. My style is bright, a little spooky, and always on brand.

What I Do

A full-spectrum creative

From logo to launch. Strategy, craft, and execution across every major marketing touchpoint.

Graphic Design
Flyers, brochures, posters, infographics, social assets, and zine layouts. Designed with intention and a distinctly handcrafted edge.
Brand Identity
Full visual systems: logo, icons, color, type, voice, and collateral that make a brand unmistakable. From scratch or full refresh.
Social Media
Strategy, content creation, community building, and growth. I know how to build an audience that genuinely engages, not just watches.
Nonprofit Marketing
Fundraising campaigns, donor outreach, event promotion, and community materials designed to move people to act.
Event Production
End-to-end event marketing: promotional design, logistics coordination, and day-of experience. Art shows, markets, fundraisers, and more.
Content and Copywriting
Copywriting, digital illustration, icon design, and multimedia content with a voice that is warm, playful, and unmistakably alive.

Who I Am

Creative meets strategic

I'm Raven, a marketing coordinator, designer and community builder based in Longmont, Colorado. My work sits where playful meets purposeful: brands that feel alive, and organizations that feel human.

At Envision I handled the marketing side of a disability services nonprofit, from donor campaigns to event graphics. Today I'm the Lead Life Enrichment Coordinator at Alta Vita Memory Care, where I plan and produce programming and events, including an art show I designed, promoted and ran for residents and their families.

Alongside that, I built Acutealypse, my spooky-cute art brand, from a market table into an online shop, and I drew the logo and illustration system for Friends Ahoy. Off the clock I paint, sew and crochet. I'm happiest when I'm making something.

I'm bright, bubbly and deeply collaborative: the kind of creative who gets excited about a good brief and stays excited through the deadline.
