ABOUT KRISTEN GARA
I have been doodling ever since I can remember, and I don’t plan to stop anytime soon. My passion is graphic design, and my numerous years in advertising give me the marketing chops to do everything from ad campaigns and logos to websites and product packaging. I love partnering with people to bring their creative visions to life. I’m also a mom, a runner, and an obsessive list maker (and checker-offer.)
