Marie is a wonderfully artistic and intuitive designer and it has been a pleasure working with her on the design of a new logo and print materials for my healing practice. Her concepts and suggestions were always very creative, and patiently presented in a variety of ways. She beautifully and professionally conveyed the essence of my healing work through her designs. I am very happy with the end product and will continue to use Marie’s graphic design services in the future!”

Every project is unique.  In today's design market where many graphic suppliers are offering templated, do-it-yourself design products, I offer creative, one of a kind design work tailored to your needs and goals. 

Your participation is appreciated and encouraged. You can be involved as much or as little as feels right to you. Some people like to hand a project off and let the designer 'go for it'. Others prefer a more hands-on approach, or may have a specific visual idea that requires close collaboration. Whatever your working style, I will work with you to produce the most graphically effective product for your purpose and the audience you serve.

I guarantee competitive rates and offer detailed cost estimates to match your budget. Because the scope of each project varies, I do not advertise set rates. Call me for a quick consult, tell me about your graphic needs, and I will provide you with a price range for your project. 

After we determine your needs and the scope of the project, I will provide you with a detailed cost estimate which will serve as a contract and provide you with an accurate account of both the cost and the process and, if needed, a production schedule to keep us both on track. 

Once the estimate is approved, I require payment of one half of the projected estimate before beginning your project. Once payment is received, I will begin work. The balance of the total amount will be due upon completion of your project. 

Contact me today!  Please fill out the contact information on the contact page and indicate the type of project(s) you have in mind (logo, brochure, publication, web design, etc.) Or, call 216-469-3428. I will get back with you within 24 hours. 

I would be happy to discuss your project over the phone, or meet with you in person in the greater Cleveland / Akron area at a location and time that is convenient to you.

Thank you for your interest. I look forward to hearing from you soon!
