Meet the Founder

I’m a graphic designer and marketing strategist who helps small business owners turn scattered ideas into thoughtful, cohesive brands. I support entrepreneurs who want their visuals and messaging to feel aligned, confident, and true to who they are. 

Good design isn’t just about looking polished, it’s also about clarity and consistency.

Hi, I’m Katie – Founder & Creative Lead of Thymely Studios.

How I Got Here

My work lives at the intersection of creativity and strategy. With a background in operations and the arts, I’ve always been drawn to balance, rhythm, and intentional composition — principles that naturally carry into branding and visual identity.

After seeing how overwhelming branding and marketing can feel for small business owners, I created Thymely Studios to offer a calmer, more collaborative experience. Based in Northern Colorado, I work with clients in Loveland and beyond to create thoughtful, approachable design that grows with their business. 

I bring several years of experience supporting C-suite leaders and entrepreneurs, leading marketing initiatives, brand strategy, business operations, and high-level client engagement. With a broad industry perspective and a keen eye for detail, I help small businesses grow with more structure, creativity, and ease.

What I Do

I specialize in:

  • Branding & visual identity development

  • Graphic design for digital and print

  • Marketing strategy for small businesses

I offer both one-time services and ongoing creative partnerships, depending on your needs and stage of growth.

A Little More About Me

Creativity doesn’t stop at my desk. In my free time, I enjoy knitting and spinning fiber, growing houseplants, and creating still-life drawings inspired by plants and quiet details. 

I’m also a classically trained musician with nearly twenty years of experience playing piano, along with several years performing on other woodwind and percussion instruments. That foundation shapes how I work with care, balance, and attention to rhythm and flow.
