Hey there,
I'm Lindsey!
I am graphic designer with a love for thoughtful details, bold creativity, and a touch of country charm.
Originally from Redkey, Indiana, I'm now based in Muncie, where I craft bold, intentional designs that blend strength with softness I have a soft spot for packaging and book design-so much so that I'll buy something just because the design speaks to me (even if the product itself doesn't).
My design style? Think feminine, dreamy, and delicate -balanced with a little grit and confidence. Whether it's branding, storytelling, or packaging that turns heads, I love creating work that feels as strong as it looks.
When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me lifting heavy in the gym, cooking up something delicious in the kitchen, or unwinding with my dog Kappa watching our favorite shows.
Let's create something bold, meaningful, and maybe even a little unexpected. ✨

Lindsey's Spotify Favorites
My music taste is somewhere between a whiskey-soaked honky tonk and a late-night drive with the windows down. It’s country grit, rock anthems, and hip-hop beats all rolled into one—think Morgan Wallen heartbreak ballads, Treaty Oak Revival outlaw energy, and Nickelback’s unapologetic dad-rock bangers. Whether it’s Zach Bryan for the soul, ASAP Rocky for the vibe, or Luke Combs for the beer-in-hand singalongs, my music fuels my creativity. They all help shape the work I create.
