A Bit About Me
The Nitty Gritty:
I am the Owner and Creative Director here at Neise Design with 10+ years of professional experience.
​
I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2008 with my B.F.A. in Graphic Design and began an internship with a small boutique card making company.
​
From there I took on a job at a globally recognized food packaging company as a Graphic Designer and Marketing Associate. I was promoted within the company to Print Production Coordinator and learned the ins and outs of large format print production.
​
I then moved on to working with a Promotional Products Business in the heart of Greek Town, Chicago. I learned a great deal about the different types of printing for promo items as well as web based order forms, large scale event design, menu design and working within tight brand standards.
​
Living the life:
I moved to Los Angeles in the summer of 2019 to pursue my most recent position as lead designer with a small boutique wedding invitation and events company. While working there I learned the art of letterpress printing and foiling among the other amazing types of printing that wedding invitations can lend themselves to. I was also able to work on multiple large scale events, in turn learning how to handle the fast paced world of weddings and large scale corporate events.
​
I started Neise Design to do what I love, design. I love helping other creatives make their dreams into realities, whether it's a new brand creation, designing wedding invitations, help with a website or anything else you might need designed i'm here to help.
​
I live for a good lavender latte, hiking with my wonderful husband, and re-reading Harry Potter over and over.
Whatever you can dream up, l'd love to help you make it a reality!
