meet the founder
Hey! I’m Savannah, but you can also call me Sav.
I’m a graphic designer from Buffalo, NY with a serious love for storytelling, strong visuals, and design that actually connects with people.
I’ve spent years working at agencies and collaborating with clients across industries - from small start-ups to big-name brands. Over time, I found the most meaningful work was the kind that made people feel seen, understood, or inspired. That’s what led me to dig deeper into empathy-led design and eventually start building this studio.
Now, I’m lucky enough to be working as the Lead Graphic Designer for Sales on the New Highmark Stadium with the Buffalo Bills - a once in a lifetime project that means so much to me and my hometown.
I’m deeply passionate about creating thoughtful, people-first design, which has led me to develop my own studio focused on meaningful, connection-driven work. Whether collaborating on large campaigns or independent creative initiatives, I bring the same intentional and dedicated energy to every project.
