Cre8ting in Chaos
It's been an honor to cre8te with my clients & colleagues for what will soon be 3 years of this pandemic. I am incredibly proud of all of us for staying focused {and sane} while accomplishing gr8 things for the present and the future.
Please take a moment to enjoy a few scrolls of cre8tive celebr8tion & inspiration.

FOR A WEST COAST BABE
The events of the pandemic did not stop Sharde Hunter from following her dreams of having her own salon with a gorgeous brand to promote it.

The BABE brand celebrates natural beauty and the divine female spirit that empowers us to look and feel our best.
Sharde's not bossy, she THE BOSS BABE. I cre8ted all the graphics and branding elements she needed to build her own website, manage her socials, and outfit her salon for a professional presentation.

WITH THE KUNDALINIANS
Covid-19 changed how we do everything, including how we practice yoga.
Cre8ting remotely for a fully charged Kundalini Light House in the Dark Realms of Technology & Social Media has been a daily intergalactic adventure.
Thanks Goddess Kundalini Yoga gives us Jedi Powers. Jai is living proof that we can break through personal blocks and thrive in a 5D world.
*Most of you will want to Google that one.
Here's what {sb} wants you to know about
Kundalini Yoga
Kundalini Yoga makes me feel like I should carry around a box of microphones just so I can be dropping them everywhere I go as I slay the day.
"GET HIGH ON YOUR OWN SUPPLY"
~ Jai Jai Kaur
There is no pill, medication, vape, gummy, brownie, booze, pizza, patty melt, or cupcake that makes you feel as gr8 as Kundalini Yoga.
Kundalini brings out your own unique gr8ness. It rewards you with powerful energetic skills for navigating daily life.
It makes you feel so comfortable in your own body, you'll be channeling Lizzo level confidence in whatever your wearing because your so incredibly gr8ful for what's underneath.
Known as the yoga of Awareness, the potent and powerfully positive life-shifting benefits of practicing Kundalini ripple out into your family, your friends, and especially your work.
As Jai's Cre8tive Padawan, I've had the privilege's of practicing A LOT of Kundalini. Often in the back of the class taking photos and videos. Over the years I've witnessed PTSD plagued soldiers soften, broken addicts heal, and cancer survivors thrive - all a result of this age old practice of breathe, movement, and mediation.
If you're reading this and thinking, "what is f$ck is {sb} on and how can I get it?" Get your ass to a Jai Kundalini class.
You can thank me later. SAT NAM

WITH RETAIL THERAPY
For us cre8tive types, post-pandemic times are permission to cre8te whatever & however we want. This exploratory cre8tivity often results in us saying, "why didn't we do it like this before?"
The notoriously purposeful PJB is redefining how we shop small and she's schooling all of us in the art of a well branded customer experience.
It's an absolute gift to cre8te for clients who get as excited as I do about custom tissue paper & branded packing tape.
reopening well
AND KEEPING EVERYONE SAFE
I'm incredibly proud of the Rain Wellness Team for continuing to bravely & safely do all they can to shower customers with wellness during this never ending pandemic.
My cre8tive challenge for Rain this year was communication. I put all my Autism Mom wisdom to work to design calm, clear and cre8tive marketing and signage for stressed out self-care lovers across Connecticut.

{But call first! See the signs?}
Inspiring Generosity
AND SHARING THE BRANFORD LOVE
I was honored to put my #BranfordLove to work for the Branford Community Foundation's COVID19 Response Fund.
My heart grew a few sizes every time I saw the hundreds of this signs proudly displayed in homes and businesses around Branford, CT.
If you were one of those people:
THANK YOU

FOR DREAM HOME DESIGNERS
Trying to get America to Stay Home hasn't been easy. LDD Interiors is doing everything they can to make sure we all love being there.
From exclusive Stay Home candles, to transforming the American Dream Home, to Home Design Solutions for First Responders - these ladies never skipped a beat in 2020.
"It is vitally important when designing a new look for a successful brand, that the designer walks a delicate tight rope delivering original content, guiding the transition, supporting the spirit of the original company all the while building the teams confidence in the upcoming changes.
{sb} not only walked the rope confidently, there were times that I swear she did a double back flip while juggling flaming torches, because that is what working with Lisa Davenport can be like! The results are spectacular, and the response even more so."

Who did THE MOST this year?
Lisa Davenport & the LDD Interiors Team. They also made time to recognize and give back to First Responders.
That's why I'm naming LDD Interiors
