For the Bold
Strategic Graphic Design, Branding & Web Design for Experience-Driven Service Businesses — based in Bellingham, WA and helping businesses stand out in the Pacific Northwest.
Quality Graphic and Web Design in the P.N.W.
Yo! I’m Erin. I’m a designer based in Bellingham, WA, crafting high-impact brands for
businesses across the Pacific Northwest.
I build custom visual identities, websites, and graphics with a focus on clarity,
craft, and storytelling.
My work leans toward thoughtful, bold, and unconventional design rather than fleeting trends.
I’m not here to give you a template; I’m here to build a brand that ages well and stands out
in a crowded market.

"We found that Erin was conscientious and engaged from the beginning of our communication, at each step of the way and all the way through to the completion of the project. His proposal for the timeline and product delivery was clear, and he responded quickly as the pieces were developed with the Mindport team. We found that communicating our preferences for the image development was smooth and produced results in line with the overall appearance we were aiming for."

We've been recommended to contact Erin to make the album art for our last music release. After seeing what he did on his site and listening to his music band, we've been convinced. He took care to asked us what we had in mind to specify and find where to go in a kind, natural and efficient way. As musicians, It was reassuring to know that he's also one and he understand what we need. Finally, he just took our ideas/expectations and make them real, sublimating them in the process. Erin is cool, and serious, and his work rocks, so we can do nothing but recommend him!
