HI, I’m Courtney, a one-woman creative studio.
Designer, Mother, Strategist, Dreamer, Stylist, Alchemist.
I’m a Queenstown-based Mum of two. Happiest with a Bordeaux, good jazz, and a blank canvas that's about to become something. I don't make businesses look nice. I want to hand them back who they actually are.
For years I dulled my own work down to fit what everyone else wanted sweeter, safer, more agreeable… cramming in projects until it made me sick enough to stop. Now I design in a boutique capacity for the people who run everyday businesses littered with significance and value. The everyday heroes who don't yet realise they're wearing a cape.
I'll never soften your brand into something forgettable just to keep it comfortable. That's not design that's you, disappearing. And you didn't build something that matters just to vanish into the noise.

How I got here.
I've been making things since I was a kid it was never a question of whether I'd create, only what. I came up self-taught, building the craft brick by brick because I couldn't not.
Over five years in, I’m still in Queenstown illustrating, designing, but more importantly reminding incredible people just how phenomenal they are one project at a time.
What I actually do:
-
I don't design to what's popular this season. I design to what's true about you because trends expire and truth compounds.
-
I take on a handful of clients at a time, and I'm honest when we're not a fit. Full attention, real investment, no assembly line.
-
You won't leave with a folder you file away. You'll leave with something that grows as you do a foundation, not a full stop.
“I’m not for the business chasing cheap, fast, or forgettable. Not for the one who wants a tidy machine with no soul in it, or who’ll vanish the moment the quote lands. If you just want a transactional website or just a logo, I’m not your girl. But if you’re ready to be seen as who you actually are? Sit down. Let’s talk.”
