I’m obsessed with sunsets, loud music, vibrant colors, pretty fonts, sketching until my hands cramp up, photographing pretty things, traveling the world, making up new recipes in my kitchen and yes, I share. I'm very curious, love learning new things, a great listener, secret keeper, and love having deep conversations.
let's work together!
We'd be a great fit!
I've always been drawn to bright colors, font pairings, and anything I could put my personal touch on.
I got a kick-ass job at a creative marketing agency a few years back, but with little creative freedom, I had a gut feeling that there was MORE waiting for me in the design world. I followed my intuition and Amuse was born a month later in my living room. Best decision of my life thus far. Besides getting Tater Tot, of course.
Hi, I'm Kara

Meet the designer behind Amuse
"My dream in any collaboration is to feel as though I can channel my creative vision and have it lifted to its highest expression through the one I am collaborating with. Kara consistently taps into her own genius to bring through what I feel but cannot create myself. She is a wizard of design and has the biggest heart, which makes the process with her that much more fulfilling and fun. At Almost 30, we are constantly complimented on our design in every corner of what we do...we have Kara to thank!!"

"Kara's process is very intentional and individualized. She spends time getting to know you, your brand, your vision for you company. If you are like me, you can talk all day about your craft, but when it comes to translating it into a visual brand you are paralyzed. Kara's gift is her intuitive ability to see color and visuals while you talk. When you describe your vision she is able to connect the core of who you are to a carefully curated aesthetic for your company. When the design elements are revealed she will draw on pieces of your personality/company that you barely even saw in yourself. She is so unbelievably gifted and her branding will give you the confidence to see yourself the way she sees you."

"Don't think, just work with Kara. She gets it, she's cool, she's great at her craft, and she really knows how to get into who you are and what you're trying to create. Everyone who knows me that has seen the branding has said the same thing: it feels so incredibly you. And that is exactly what every business owner should want. My biggest take away is how important it is to have someone who understands you and your vibe, but also offers a fully comprehensive brand suite. I feel so prepared for every step that's to come in my journey after working with Kara."

"Working with Kara has been a dream—end stop. She seamlessly blends technical expertise with creative acumen, illuminating my words and innovating my brand. Kara is one of those rare collaborators whose skill and experience deliver not only an innovative final product, but whose (warm, kind, and wonderful) presence makes the entire process an absolute delight. As a result of working with Kara, I’ve seen a strong and concrete ROI—helping me drive more leads, secure more partnerships, and put my best foot forward to potential clients. I started working with Kara just a few months ago, and almost immediately, her design support completely transformed my presence in the digital space. Looking forward to more collaborations to come."

"I've worked with creatives my whole career, building brands for business big and small - but never my own. Kara has this unique ability to SEE you, truly understand you, your energy, your soul - and translate that visually into something that feels deeply personal and elevated. Her work is truly for those who have a business with heart and soul, and who aren't afraid to be SEEN."

"Working with Kara was truly life changing. She is so gifted at understanding and translating ideas into something beautiful and cohesive. She took my scattered ideas for my business and gave me confidence in my brand and in the work that we do. Everything turned out better than I could have imagined. I absolutely love my branding, logo, website, and everything in between. If you’re looking for someone who truly gets it, someone who can capture the essence of your brand and bring it to life in the most beautiful and unique way…Kara is it."

She has taken our business to another level through her creations and designs - and always did it with a smile. I'm thankful for her energy and talent. I've recommended her to almost all my friends!"
