Laura Hines

Senior Graphic Designer

Laura wants to live in a world filled with innovative and collaborative creative design geniuses, air fresheners that smell like a good book, and delicious, fresh organic, raw, local gardening based restaurants on every corner instead of fast food joints.

As a Graphic Designer with more than 11 years of experience, she’s worked for companies large and small, here and far producing anything from print ads, website design and branding for companies from the ground up to billboards, car wraps, skateboard designs and product packaging. Her specialty is working with companies to produce a working, targeted brand look that will increase interest in the target market. She is a Southern Colorado native and knows the Colorado Springs markets and will put her artistic expertise to work for you!

When she’s not creating amazing designs to inspire business owners to get more out of their growing business and attract more customers, you can find her making a delicious vegan meal, using food as medicine, practicing boxing and martial arts, outside hiking or kayaking, just generally taking advantage of living in beautiful Colorado and enjoying or creating art and beauty in other forms.
