Hi, I’m Elise. I lead digital design for agency & corporate teams.
For over a decade I’ve brought brands to life in digital spaces with the latest web trends and accessibility standards. I work with both local and global brands in senior roles at agencies, start-ups, and in-house settings.
My prior work is focused on leading and contributing to brand, e-commerce, and design systems teams. I love to discuss the under-the-hood of digital production design to anyone with an interest.
Some global brands I’ve had the privilege to design for include Nike, Microsoft, Upwork, Spotify, and Autodesk.
In my downtime I illustrate & design for non-profit organizations to empower under-served communities, youth, and women.
I believe the most valuable contribution I make as a designer is the impact of the work I put into the world. Some non-profit teams I’ve been lucky enough to work with include Skate Like A Girl, The Vera Project, and Move Redmond.
I maintain an illustration studio on the side…
… called The Weather House. It features pop-surreal watercolors (made in both digital and traditional mediums.) While my career is in design, I also have a degree in Illustration & I believe every creative professional has a little illustrator in them!
You can see my artwork on my separate illustration site, elisebeast.com. There you can find and follow news about my contributions to group shows and zines.
