Hi, I’m Nicole. I’m a multi-disciplinary graphic designer based in Portland-Maine.

I graduated with a BFA degree in Graphic Design from Maine College of Art in 2014. After graduation, I worked as the Graphic Designer at world-renowned interior design studio angela adams before moving onto Associate Designer & Digital Media Specialist at Maine College of Art (2015–2020). I am an active member of AIGA Maine (2013–present), currently volunteering on AIGA’s Maine Board as part of the Communications Committee.

My entire design career showcases my innovative and enthusiastic nature. I produce unique and memorable designs and solutions through impactful visual storytelling. A combination of dynamic color and a playful spirit, my design style is seen across various skillsets, including branding, graphic design, website design, and content marketing. With this flexibility, my freelance design career includes collaboration with a wide variety of clients in multiple industries.

Over the past ten years, freelance clientele includes Access Health, AudioPhiles, Banded Horn Brewing, Town of Cape Elizabeth, CLYNK, Cross Town Trails, Ladies Adventure Club, Maine International Film Festival, Portland Bach Festival, Portland Regional Chamber of Commerce, Pulp+Wire, Nashbox, Opportunity Alliance, Sheepscot Medicinals, SustainabilityNxt, South Portland United, Westbrook Community Cares, and Valico Group.

An avid learner with a love of experimentation and collecting design magazines, I find passion in developing new skills and exploring art mediums, inspiration from attending lectures and workshops, and savoring unexpected outcomes of creating. You can spot me by my vibrant hair while adventuring around Portland with my goofy, rambunctious sidekick, Finn, the pug.

My resume is viewable on my public LinkedIn profile.

Let’s collaborate!

I am open to both local and remote employment, freelance, or collaborative opportunities.
