Alyson or Allison…
I earned my BFA in Graphic Design in 2008 and began my career working with Fortune 500 fashion brands in Los Angeles. I later relocated to Portland, Oregon, where I partnered with small businesses and developed a highly versatile, hands-on skill set. After moving to Colorado, I led design teams in the tech space, launched my own design business, and expanded my practice before eventually returning to San Diego, California.
Across my career as a designer, art director, and business owner, I’ve delivered thoughtful creative solutions across digital and print. My experience includes UX/UI design, full Shopify site management, email campaign strategy, team leadership, sales and marketing collateral, social media campaigns, content creation, product photography, and high-volume image production. I’ve produced photo shoots on tight timelines, contributed to high-end advertising campaigns, and helped emerging brands define their voice. I consider myself a design generalist with a deep understanding of both creative execution and strategy.
I enjoy collaborating with both individuals and large organizations and am always excited to build meaningful, well-crafted work together.
