About me

Hi, I’m Chelsea! 👋🏻

Graphic designer, font hoarder and the face behind Else Studio

I’ve been a full-time graphic designer for over five years, with freelancing always part of the mix. From packaging for household fragrance brands to branding, signage, socials and everything in between, I help small businesses turn ideas into brands that actually feel like them.

I believe good branding should feel considered, bold and a little playful. Else Studio is where strategy meets creativity and where your brand gets to show up with confidence.
