Hello, I’m Colette! I’m a designer, type enthusiast, and creative thinker based in Baltimore, Maryland.

I’m a curiosity-driven designer who strives to learn from each project and create thoughtful, intentional designs. My experience spans hospitality, corporate, non-profit, and government sectors, with a focus on brand development, visual systems, illustration, and custom typography.

I find inspiration in everyday details—city signage, nature, architecture, and all of the often overlooked moments. Design is always present if you’re paying attention.

Because some of my experience has been as a contractor for federal organizations, not all my work is publicly shareable. However, I’m happy to discuss my process and approach during a private conversation.
