About Me

Hey there! I'm Alaina Leverenz. I started my freelance branding and design company in 2016 while I was a master's student at IUPUI. My very first client was the Partnership for Philanthropic Planning where I partnered magnificent team that helped rebrand the entire national organization and many of its local chapters. Since then, I've partnered with many wonderful companies in both the nonprofit and for-profit industries to make their advertising, websites, and rebranding dreams come true.
