Professional design for your print-on-demand or traditionally published projects

Professional Print design

It’s a digital world, but print continues to have a place. Physical materials have a permanence and professionalism that is hard to match with memes and PDFs.

When you’re ready to take your online presence onto the printed page it’s important to work with a designer who understands the ins and outs of publishing in print and can produce quality files to your printer’s specs.

Layout and Design Experience

I have over 15 years experience with print projects, including art direction and page design for two different print magazines as well as typesetting and book design for books published via traditional and print-on-demand publishers.

I work in up-to-date industry standard Adobe Creative Suite software (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat).

I can communicate with your printer on your behalf about all the nerdy details of trim hazards, bleed measurements, color profiles, image resolution, margins, gutters, and all the rest.

Erika is a very talented designer. She takes direction and feedback well and is quick to turn around projects. She has our brand NAILED and I couldn’t have been happier to have found her!

After our first conversation I knew I wouldn’t have to worry! I was so grateful that you took time getting to understand what my needs and style were so that you could properly convey that with your design work for me. Our first consultation gave me immediate confidence in your professionalism and your abilities!

Erika was an amazing resource in my course development. I needed a brand design for the course modules and the layout of all the printables. She provided several options and worked with me until I had exactly what I wanted!

Erika is a pleasure to work with. She always gets me what I need on or before schedule and is patient with all of my demanding and changing timelines! I’m honestly not sure what I would do without her help – she is communicative, thorough, and a downright rockstar. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you, Erika!

Erika did an amazing job putting together my lead magnet. She really understood me and took my edits in with quick turnaround. I really enjoyed her communications style and assistance since this was my first lead magnet. I would def. use Erika again. She’s a gem.

Erika was fabulous to work with! It was clear that she was very knowledgeable about the steps our project would take. We found Erika to be prompt, courteous and very accepting of feedback and adjustments. It was a pleasure to work with Erika and we look forward to future projects. Highly recommend.

Erika is a class act. Hardworking and conscientious, she brings great value to whatever project is assigned to her. She is a pleasure to work with, can work independently with little oversight and hits all deadlines. Her design skills might only be superseded by her writing skills which are formidable.
