I’m a graphic designer with fourteen years experience specializing in book cover design and interior layouts. An avid reader myself, I love designing books that visually stand out in the marketplace.
As an illustrator, I’ve created book covers, pattern designs for Bentology lunch boxes, coloring pages for Cheerios, and countless designs for small businesses, wedding invitations, non-profits and events.

Design Client Reviews
Five Stars! I met Alissa through a friend, and working with her has been one of the best decisions I have made as an author. She is incredibly easy to work with and brings so much compassion, kindness, and patience to the creative process. As someone who can be very all over the place, I cannot overstate how much I appreciate her steady guidance and understanding.
On top of being wonderful to collaborate with, Alissa is insanely talented. I constantly receive compliments on both my romantic comedy covers, and people regularly stop to ask who designed them. Her work truly stands out.
Beyond my covers, Alissa has also designed the interiors of both of my novels and created artwork for social media. She has been an invaluable support throughout my publishing journey, including the moments when I felt completely overwhelmed. I am genuinely grateful our paths crossed and I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future.

Alissa’s design work on my award-winning children’s picture book, Floo Flocky Doo to the Rescue, was truly exceptional. The accolades the book has received—and continues to receive—are due in large part to her remarkable creative vision and keen design sense. When I write future sequels in the series, Alissa will unquestionably be my first choice as graphic designer.

Alissa knew exactly where to place each word in Miss Mittens so the story reads smoothly and the key moments truly pop on the page. She wins the award for working with first time authors and making adjustments on the fly.
