Hi! It's me, Chelsea, a freelance graphic designer & photographer based in Ann Arbor. I spent the last 10+ years living in Chicago and Durham exploring my own art, while also helping other companies, large or small, expand their brand. I specialize in web design, front end development, user experience, identity & branding, photography, & am always trying to expand my creative knowledge! Let's work together :) When I'm not busy working you can find me cooking bomb meals, pushing paint around the canvas, exploring all that this awesome planet has to offer & documenting it as I go, & enjoying the company of all the fabulous people in my life.
I'm constantly trying to expand my creative knowledge & draw inspiration from the world around me, in order to create
work that speaks for itself. Here are some of the things I can do.
See the world through my eyes. People. Places. Things. Doesn't matter, I'll snap it. Always up for new projects.
Put your best foot forward from the get-go. A cohesive & attractive brand will set your business apart from your competitors.
From logo design to print design and everything in between. Good design is key to getting your message to the masses.
Leave a great impression with a well designed website that will leave customers wanting more. HTML/CSS & web design wiz.
In the hands of a skilled editor, your video could become a "story" with a beginning, middle & end; a cohesive synopsis.
How do your users feel about using your app? App design is an integral part to whether or not your app is successful.
I started my education in Ann Arbor, attending Huron High School. From there I moved across the country to attend San Diego State University. After a year I decided I wanted to be closer to family and transferred to Eastern Michigan University. During my time at Eastern I had the opportunity to study abroad at Curtin University of Technology in Perth, Australia for a semester.

I have been doing freelance Graphic Design & Photography for the past 10 years. I've designed websites, apps, sales materials, investor decks, logos, save the dates, business cards, and more! I've had the opportunity to shoot senior photos, headshots, engagement photos, product shots for Vault Furniture & La Kaiser Jewelry, & my love for taking photos doesn't limit me. I snap photos everywhere I go :) I have also shot and edited videos for weddings and businesses.
