I’m Glory
I'm "A Maker" of things.
Most people call me “a designer”, but in truth, I make things.
I’m a maker because I don’t stop when the designing is done. I make sure the design is executed. That something is “made”.
To me, a designer has great ideas; beautiful ideas. But a maker brings them to life. A maker solves problems.
I design a lot of stuff. But the stuff I’m really proud of, I have made.
…and I love what I do.
I make aestetically pleasing, functional websites.
And I create thoughtful, memorable brand identities.
I Make Websites
Design + Function = Happy Customers.
I create stunning, easy to navigate, responsive websites, and I believe simplicity and organization is key if you want to keep users engaged and want them to convert. It’s easy to create a bloated web site; it takes planning and a keen understanding of your needs and goals to create a website that is functional, beautiful, and user-friendly.
A Brand Is So Much More than a logo
It is the tone of voice you use with clients, it is the values that you hold dear, it is the style you show… a brand gives people a sense of who you are as a company, what you stand for, and your company culture. Your company identity determines your style, and your brand creates a cohesive and clear representation of that identity through all the outlets you utilize. I help you distill your “special sauce” – what makes you unique among the crowd. And then I create a brand design and strategy that is uniquely yours.
I Make Brands
I Make Graphics
Graphic Design is my jam
The truth iMy first entrepreneurial endeavor was as a luxury event stationery designer. Nevermind I had never even opened a graphic design software package and literally had no idea what I was doing. But I buckled down and before long I was working with fortune 500 companies, celebrities, and prestigious universities. That experience has given me the tools to help clients achieve the visual representation of their brand on and off the web.
Webmaster G to the rescue!
Everyone wants a beautiful, functional, user-friendly website, but not everyone has the time or know-how to keep it tip-top. And even though I design using the Divi platform (which makes my sites front-end editable), most of my clients enlist me to manage their sites. Your concern should be with running your company. That’s where you shine. Let me worry about site maintenence, updates, security, and your customer’s online experience. te.

Logo Design
A logo is more than a visual trinket. It should speak to your company culture, your values, and your goals. I work with my clients to really get at the heart of what they want their business to say to the public, and then create eye-catching visual representations of that.
Business Branding
A logo is like the high-five of your brand identity. Some give it up top, some on the side, some give a fist bump. You get an immediate impression of what kind of business stands behind that high-five. Your company identity determines your high-five style, and your brand creates a cohesive representation of your company through all the outlets you utilize.
Blog Branding
There are billions of blogs on the internet and many get lost in the ether. Many blogs don’t have the same branding needs as product or service providers. However, a cohesive and unified “look” for your blog and social media via graphic elements creates a visual brand that helps set you apart from others in your niche, and gets you noticed by influencers.

Cups Of Coffee
I tend to stand out from the crowd. in a good way.
(Usually)
My work philosophy is old-fashioned. You work until it is perfect. And then keep trying to improve.
Creative + Smart Design
Creating is my passion and I’ve done it all, from designing websites to wedding stationery, and from portfolios to packaging. And along the way I’ve learned a thing or two about what works and what doesn’t. I design strategically with your goals in mind. If I have a down-fall, it would be over-thinking things. Trust me. This benefits my clients.
Comprehensive Branding
I specialize in the development of comprehensive and cohesive brand identities for small businesses and blogs. Your brand identity is a function of your company culture, your mission, your services or products, your business philosophy, and your client base. Anyone can create a generic logo, but it takes a deep understanding of your business to create a comprehensive brand identity that sets you apart from the competition.
Experience
Hey, I’ve been there. I’ve been inside the blogosphere, behind the business plans, and in front of the crowd. I’ve published, I’ve gained followers, and I’ve taught. I’ve boot-strapped, and launched, and grown, and re-branded. I’ve done a lot, so I understand the unique needs of my clients. I’ve been professionally designing websites and branding events, businesses, and blogs for over a decade. But it is my passion for my clients success that pushes me to improve everyday.
Pick me! Pick Me!
My work speaks for itself. But my happy clients also make me blush with their kind words of recommendation.
“Thank you!! All of this is lovely, and you have been AH-MAZING!! you are definitely my designer now…. You’re stuck with me! 🙂 Thank you again for working so hard to create exactly what I had envisioned! It really is perfect!”
“We have been researching websites for our PTO and we think yours is fantastic! Could you give us some guidance or who to contact so we can get started on ours?”
(contact forwarded by a web design client)
“My logo gets so many compliments all the time. Thank you so much for what you have done for my brand. I want you to know you have a gift. You don’t just make logos, you create life… for me anyways. I don’t know how to put it in words, but I love my branding so much.”
“Thank you SO much for all you have done to make our day so special. It would not have been as much fun or as beautiful if you did not take part. Even though we have never met in person, I feel like I made a new friend
