Hello! I’m Rachel!

I’m an Iowa-based graphic designer & illustrator who loves people, summer, the color blue, and all things nostalgia.

Growing up I was always the girl who would volunteer to make the event posters, lead the 4–H decorating committee, design the team t-shirt, film and edit the mission trip recap video… which led to a lightbulb experience at the end of my senior year of high school that I should study graphic design!

Fast-forward, and in May of 2024 ’ll be graduating from Iowa State University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts of Graphic Design. With four years of design experience through various jobs, internships, and positions, I’ve confirmed that I still do love the vast opportunities that fall under “graphic design” – from branding to illustration to photography – but at the end of the day it’s coming up with creative solutions that visually represent underlying stories, values, and messages that brings my heart great joy.

As both a designer and artist, my past projects have ranged from non-profit branding to watercolor portraits to wedding stationary design. I love it all!

Let’s make something beautiful and meaningful!
