People liked my work so much it gave me the inspiration to start my own business. Contributing to other people’s dreams and make their business more successful is a reward in itself.

Your Custom Web Designer

Hey there, I’m Lydia! In terms of the work I do, I am motivated by people. I find combining knowledge, purpose, people to be extremely invigorating. I am constantly building on my standing knowledge of web design, graphic design, and visual branding.

Professional Achievements:

Defining Creativity

When I was studying at Michigan State University, this piece was nominated for the American Advertising Award (ADDYs).

To this day, this piece still holds a significant meaning for me. This is my definition of creativity.

Kidney Walk

National Kidney Foundation asked me to capture the precious moments at the Kidney Walk. This was a very fulfilling day.

Personal Achievements:

I like to show personal achievements because many people can tell you that you should go outside your comfort zone, but I would rather show you. As uncomfortable as it may be, it is WELL WORTH IT, you don’t understand how much you can learn and grow. It often feels the same way starting a business. You don’t know where to go, how to start, and how to maintain. You’re not alone and I’m here to help.

Traveled to 15+ countries

I believe growth happens outside your comfort zone — even when it’s intimidating (and trust me, sometimes it really is). A recent example? I packed up and moved to Spain for 3 years, diving headfirst into a completely new environment: new country, new language, new culture, new connections.

Living in Europe has always been a dream of mine, and now I get to say I lived it. It’s both empowering and freeing — a reminder that bold steps can lead to beautiful places.
