I’ll be speaking at an upcoming ANA workshop on building and growing a private practice on April 10. I'll be teaching how to craft a clear and authentic elevator pitch 🧡

This one-day virtual event is focused on practical strategies for nutrition professionals, including business strategy, pricing, marketing, and defining your niche. It’s free for ANA members, and recordings will be available if you can’t attend live.

Check out my most recent logo design—for a family! 🤗

When Jeremy Hyatt reached out to me to design a custom logo for his family, I was flattered! I’d worked for 9 years with his wife Lee Carson on design projects for Hyatt Training Gym in Portland, but I’d never worked with Jeremy. And to make the project even more fun, it was going to be a surprise for Lee and their two kids! 🤫

Jeremy approached me wanting a family brand, “like the kind a cowboy would stamp on the flank of their cow.” 😆 He wanted something simple and meaningful that could be used on hats, t-shirts and bumper stickers. Ideas he wanted represented in the logo: mountains (their happy place) and 4 (each member of the family).

I made a logo that features the first initial of each family member’s name (L, J, M and G), which together create the shape of mountains ⛰ I created the mountains using equilateral triangles, a shape that connotes strength, unity and equality. The resulting logo feels perfect for this close-knit, outdoorsy and adventurous family 😊

Jeremy loved the resulting logo so much that he had it tattooed on his forearm! 😲

Did you know that nearly all my clients and projects come from the referrals you send my way?

To show my appreciation for all your support, I’m launching my very own refer-a-friend program! 😃

How it works: For every client you refer to me, I’ll gift you an hour of my time on your next design project 🙌 You don't even have to be a Bright Spot Studio client to get in on the fun!
