MEET THE FOUNDER
HEY, I'M ELYSSA
an artsy introvert turned creative business owner who helps small brands feel seen
From doodles at markets to full-blown brand strategy, I’ve built Studio e to support passionate folks like you with thoughtful, handcrafted design.
I didn’t go to art school. I didn’t climb the agency ladder. I quit my 9–5 in 2023 with nothing but a sketchbook, a love for doodles, and a deep need to make something of my own. Somewhere between art markets and creative burnout, I discovered branding—and something clicked. It was like turning on a light.
Now, I help thoughtful business owners—especially coffee shops, therapists, and small creative teams—build brand identities that are hand-crafted, strategic, and totally theirs. You won’t find pixel-perfect templates or rigid rules here. Studio e is about human-first design. Organic. Quirky. Rooted in the real stuff: conversations, collaboration, and the little details that make your brand feel like you.
Whether I’m sketching logo concepts with a calligraphy brush or leading a brand strategy workshop over coffee, my goal is always the same: to help you show up with confidence, clarity, and your own quiet kind of cool.
