Hi, Nice to Meet You.
I’m Lisa French D’Alessandro. I’m a long-time graphic designer and artist. I’m obsessed with brand design, packaging and product development. I am an artist, specializing in acrylic painting, murals, drawing and illustration. I teach virtually and locally at our town Arts Center.
I love to sew. I love to crochet. I love cooking and baking. I enjoy gardening. I’m a bit of a perfectionist in my own way with a lot of creative skills I like to tap into.
I am obsessed with creating. I can’t sit still unless I am creating.
I started this business when I had my second child. It’s been a fruitful and freeing venture. I love how clients become friends and being there when I’m needed. I especially love cheering my clients on and following along in their victories while they grow.
The transition from corporate to business owner has been relatively seamless, thanks to social media and entrepreneurship on the rise. Verterans of Art Departments like myself as resilient. We have spent many years meeting tight deadlines, needing to pivot on a concept or project at a moments notice, needing to create on-the-spot like an improv performer. Those of us that have lived this life and started our own businesses end up being the lynchpin in your business. Corporate and enterprise experience, when you need it.
So, let’s dial in on why hiring a remote designer is amazing for your business model.
Hiring a remote or hybrid designer like myself gives you access to talent when you need it and reduces overhead costs. No insurance, no paid leave, just hard work when you need extra support or a life jacket.
Remote work has reshaped how we think about talent and collaboration. Hiring an experienced, remote graphic designer who is also domestic combines the cost savings of remote work with the seamless collaboration of a local hire.
In addition, you’ve got the benefits of:
Zero time zone lag: Real-time messaging and quick alignment during your standard working hours.
Legal and tax simplicity: Standard corporate tax forms with zero international compliance or cross-border payment issues.
Immediate project kickoff: Highly experienced designers require zero hand-holding or extensive training to start.
Proactive problem solving: Experienced pros spot blind spots in your brief and offer strategic solutions early.
Established professional workflows: Proven project management setups, reliable file organization, and clean version control.
Strong industry network: Deep connections to trusted copywriters, developers, and printers if your project expands.
So, what are you waiting for? All of those projects you’ve wanted to tackle, or the extra hands you’ve been meaning to hire but don’t have the time to train… Call me. I’ll be there.
