ATX 9 Brand & Merch

Lead Designer · Logo, Merch & Print · 2024

Designed the complete identity for Atlas Project's ATX 9 cohort — a detailed badge logo with Greek key border and hand-drawn globe — then carried it into physical production across hoodies, bags, and certificates worn by 40+ participants. The client called it the best logo they'd ever seen.

Sponsor Campaign

Graphic Designer & Brand Support · Austin · 2023

Produced a full sponsor communication campaign for TEDx Austin Rise — designing partnership graphics for H-E-B, Kona Ice, Smashwork, and Eanes Westlake ISD. Each asset folded a household brand's identity into the TEDx visual system without breaking either. Every asset approved first pass.

Brand & Personal Identity

Freelance · Black Woman-Owned · Conflict Coaching

Brand content and personal branding for a conflict management organization founded by Elisheba Marchbank — a completely different register from entertainment work. Photography-first layouts, mission-driven editorial posts, and restrained elegance in place of loud color.

Summer Launch Party

Event Flyer & Sponsor Layout · Austin TX · 2026

The debut flyer for a new co-ed flag football league in Austin — a tropical, high-energy poster built to fill a boat party and fundraise the team's first tournament. Founder portraits, the halo-and-horns wordmark, date, RSVP cutoff, and three partner logos all resolved into a single scroll-stopping hierarchy.

Healing Through Humor veterans event flyer
As seen on San Antonio Living. Healing Through Humor was featured on air ahead of its November 10, 2024 date, with the organizers walking viewers through the mental health hour, comedy show, and networking blocks — the same three-part structure the flyer had to make legible at a glance.

Veterans Comedy Event

Freelance · San Antonio · 2024

Promotional design for a Veterans Day outreach event that paired a mental health hour with a comedy show and a networking block. Sponsors, talent, venue, ticketing, and a three-part run of show all had to read at a glance — and the event earned a live television segment ahead of the date.

About Me

Designer by craft.
Strategist by instinct.

I'm Kristen — a graphic designer and social content strategist with nearly a decade of freelance and agency experience. My work lives at the intersection of design and data: I make things that look right and perform.

At HeartFire Media I ran a five-platform content operation that pulled 208K+ views in a single month — 81% from people who'd never heard of the brand. At The Atlas Project I designed an identity that 40+ people wore on their backs. At TEDx Austin I built sponsor campaigns for H-E-B and Kona Ice.

The best content doesn't announce itself. It stops someone mid-scroll, makes them feel something, and moves the algorithm in your favor.
