Hello!
Thanks for stopping by! I knew I wanted to tap my creative skills when I wrote and drew a book about manatees in 3rd grade. Since then, this love of design & messaging has grown into a robust career spanning marketing, branding, communications, and creative strategy.
My expertise includes: marketing strategy, communciations, branding, graphic design, publication, print, digital design, signage, social media, illustration, e-commerce, web design, UX, packaging, and digital marketing. I use a human-centered approach to solving design problems and I love working with folks who connect people to wild places. I’ve worked at nonprofits for 10+ years and thrive working with purpose-driven organizations that support social equity and land conservation.
I am an avid outdoorswoman and have taken immersive wilderness courses where I learned how to backpack, sea kayak, rock climb, and mountaineer. I am an advocate for preserving the wilderness and spent two summers as a backpacking instructor with Women’s Wilderness in Boulder, CO. Also, I hold a Wilderness First Responder Certification, a 200HR Yoga Teacher Training Certification and a UX Design Certification through Neilsen Norman Group.
When I’m not pushing pixels around, you can find me trail running, fly-fishing, or searching for rocks on the beach. I’m based in Ellsworth, ME.

Folks I’ve had the pleasure of working with:
“I was impressed by Liz’s drive to complete projects and challenge herself conceptually. Even when projects were stressful, Liz kept her cool, and communicated effectively.”
-Eryn Pierce, NOLS Art Director
“Liz took on the daunting task of developing a logo without a lot of guidance from me. To say she took the ball and ran with it would be an understatement. She not only ran with the ball, she scored a touch down.”
-Mark Mills, CEO Sea Glass Consulting
“Liz has an attention to detail and dedicated focus that makes her an excellent designer.”
- Kristen Lovelace, NOLS Senior Designer
