Testimonials
As a designer I know the finished project is the main focus, but I also put emphasis on the client-designer relationship. Client feedback is extremely important to me because maintaining a positive working environment is crucial for the best ideas, and design, to flourish.
Janet Hubka | Owner & Founder of ilus art
Kristin is amazing. She helped us get our business up and running - she was a key component to the team and is so responsive and efficient. Kristin is simply the best! Between her creative designs, quick responses to questions and timely follow through, you could not be in better hands! I have used her services for designing business cards, letterhead, brochures, t-shirt designs and invitations. She does it all!
Brock Rosenthal | President of Ocean Innovations
Kristin did an amazing job providing a wide variety of graphic design services for a large international conference. Most were last minute rush requests which she handled deftly and professionally. And in the midst of this and in addition to other jobs she had, Kristin helped me with a project of my own. Kristin is a great resource and I highly recommend her.
Ryan Lamb | Editor of San Diego Beverage Times & West Coaster Magazines
Sometimes I think Kristin can read my mind! She hits all the marks I look for in a creative graphic designer.
Jason Balto | General Manager in Hospitality
In my 17 year career with Restaurant and Night Club promotions and marketing, I have never had a more valued relationship with a Graphic Design artist then the one I share with Kristin Hardy. Her turnaround time is as first-rate as her ability to create what I had envisioned.
Rachel Ertman | Ertman Property Inspections
I hired Kristin to develop a logo for my father in-law's company. Kristin was an absolute joy to work with. She transformed our ideas into a tangible image. Kristin is more than a talented artist; she is a smart business woman. The design concepts she came up with were creative, intelligent and marketable. I highly recommend Kristin.
Evelyne Ollman | San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyles Magazine
Kristin is awesome to work with! In my 15 years of advertising, I have worked with a lot of graphic artists and she's the best.
Liana Falcon | The Beatnik Boardwalk
We loved having a professional design our logo, and Kristin was so great to work with. There are so many sites that can try a guide you to do it yourself and for a small business owner that could be more cost effective route, but actually getting to tell someone what your vision is for a logo and letting them design something specific to your needs really is priceless. We love everything about our logo and the best part is it’s not a generic logo from a basic website template that millions have access to, it is custom made logo from a one of a kind graphic artist for a one of a kind small business.
