It's "ehl" (like the letter)

Hi! I'm Elle. I am an in-house graphic designer serving the Transportation Department of the North Central Texas Council of Governments. I help transportation planners better reach the public through designing pieces like: public service announcements, executive summaries, postcards, brochures, and PowerPoint templates. Previous roles have ranged from one-woman graphic design/marketing department for a university organization to web design freelancer to calligraphy instructor.

I love working alongside subject matter experts, bridging the communication gap between the “outside world” and their area of expertise: designing gorgeous federal reports or winsome websites for counselors. I am most experienced with print design, building brand systems or working within them, and crafting excellent marketing campaigns from concept to production. I also have experience with motion design, web design, email campaigns, and illustration. I am a team player and enjoy asking the unasked questions to move the team towards a better solution.

Outside of design, I love reading, cooking, hanging out with my backyard chickens, swing dancing, and kimchi.
