About Us
Meet the team that makes the magic happen with the best clients, allll the mood boards, and a lot of coffee.
Hey, I'm Meg.
Owner & Lead Graphic/Web Designer
Creativity has always been an integral part of who I am. As a child, I was drawn to art, color, music and anything that allowed me to dive into my own self expression. During my teenage years, I experimented with cosmetology, makeup, and many other career paths. Even in motherhood, I found ways to DIY everything. (Shout out to my ever-supportive hubs).
When it came to honing in on what I really wanted to do with my one, crazy beautiful life, Graphic Design came bursting onto the scene. With my last job, I was given opportunities to create graphics and design flyers – and I was hooked. Before I knew it, I was squeezing tutorials and free courses into every spare second I had. And the rest, as they say, is history.
The other half of me is a helper.
I want to help everyone. Despite being pretty socially awkward most of the time (does anyone REALLY know how to make eye contact anymore?) I genuinely want to help everyone.
That’s when I decided to put my love for design and helping others together to start The Design Booth. I love working with local businesses and entrepreneurs to create a brand from start to finish – one that not only looks really dang good but captures all their wildest wishes and dreams.
Essentially, I have the best job ever. Even my kids love being my clients and ask me to design stuff for them all the time. It’s that contagious. And of course, I always say yes.
Autism has a big part of my heart, too.
I have four incredible kiddos, and they + my husband are my world. So when my eldest daughter got a late diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder at 11 years old, it irrevocably reshaped our lives. For the longest time it felt strange talking about it. Do I say this out loud? Do people care?
But now all I want to do is shout:
I'm a proud autism mama!
This kid inspires me every moment of every day. She’s so strong, honest and insightful despite all the misdiagnosis, struggles and stigmas around girls with autism. Just because her autism doesn’t look like stereotypical autism, it doesn’t make her experience any less real.
It’s a stigma I’m very passionate about advocating against.
As a mom and a business owner, I want to empower other families with kids like my daughter to learn what autism is and to say it out loud. To never feel weird about it, but embrace every colorful shade of it. Just because it’s different doesn’t mean it’s any less beautiful.
She’s so creative – she’s even artsy-er than me: drawing boxes and boxes of pictures and landing speaking roles for performances at Playhouse 2000 in town. She’s such a cool kid and a light. We’re so grateful to have found the best community of people who support and advocate for us and her. We couldn’t do it without local nonprofits like the Behavior Resource Center who have truly changed our lives.
Being a mama, being an autism mama, is a BIG part of me and will always be something we care deeply about at The Design Booth.
While we're getting deep & personal
Here are some of my favorite quirks:
I’M A HOMEBODY with a heart for people & small businesses.
A PROUD MAMA to 4 kiddos, the eldest with high-functioning autism.
FIREWIFE: madly in love with my fireman.
BEACH LOVER who is obsessed with Ghostface everything.
My clients just get me...

And she's good at graphic design, too"
Hi, I'm heather.
Business Manager
I have been in administration for 5 (billion) years. Growing up, I found myself intrigued by all things art and music. I used to frequent Ozzfest and other similar music festivals; now I hang out with my kids and try to do the Fortnight dances. Speaking of kids, I have two of them. I never knew I wanted to be a mother until I found myself stumbling through parenthood with my oldest child. Being a mom brought me to life, and I don't know where I would be without my gremlins.
​
In my free time, other than parenting, I enjoy hiking, gardening, cooking, baking, crafting, reading, and playing video games with my friends and husband. I love hosting gatherings of friends and find myself volunteering to host holidays no matter what else is going on in my life because I love helping make happy memories for those I love. When I have spare time, you will find me playing a video game on my PC. My husband and I are both big nerds and bonded over video games early on in dating. If I'm not gaming, I'm reading. I love getting lost in a book. If you see me around town looking sleep deprived it's because I got too lost in a book and lost track of time.
​
As much as I pour my heart and soul into my family, I do for others as well. I find so much joy and purpose helping others succeed and reach their goals.
Meg asked me to get deep & personal
(Oh boy) So here's some shit about me:
I’M AN INTROVERT to the extreme, though ADHD keeps me exciting.
BEING A MOM is most of my identity. Band & Sports mom tees are life.
OBSESSED WITH THE MOUNTAINS: aspiring to be a cottage witch.
MY DAD JOKE GAME is pretty strong, not to brag.
(Meg speaking here)
Heather is over this part.
She's really fucking good at her job. She keeps me organized better than a southern mom's Happy Planner.
