Introduction

It might start with a logo. From there maybe a brochure, envelope, letterhead and business card, but almost always a website. You want your business to stand out from the rest and to show what you offer. I am excited to work together with you to achieve design options that are distinctive and showcase your product or service.

Take Your Brand Beyond Just a Name and a Logo
Logo & Identity
Your Logo is an important part of who you are. It should embody what you stand for and be easily recognizable. It is also important to remain consistent so that when someone sees it they immediately associate it with you. Your logo is frequently the first thing someone sees and can show potential clients your professionalism. My goal is to help you to create a unique representation of your business using your input and creativity to uniquely convey your message.

My background
About
My specialty is print and web design. I hold an Associate’s Degree in Graphic Design from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I also have training in logo and brand creation, web development, package design (including CD and DVD design) and digital and traditional illustration.
I have been a Freelance Graphic Designer for the past several years designing print media, websites and logos for several local businesses as well as an upstart entertainment company in New York City. I also worked as the Creative Director at World Class Hunting, formerly located in Wellsboro, PA.
It is my goal to create top-quality, innovative designs for print and electronic media.
I currently live in the Alaskan bush where my husband and I serve with a mission agency working with Operation Heal our Patriots. It is a rewarding opportunity and beautiful landscape where I am inspired daily by both the scenery and the wonderful people.

What People Are Saying About My Design Work
Developing and managing a website might be an easy task for some people; for others it is a source of frustration and despair! As we looked for growth for our business, it was clear that the best avenue for marketing was through a professionally done website. It was also clear to us that this task was somewhat out of our league. In order to develop the site we were hoping for, we knew we would need to invest a tremendous amount of time into a skill that we were not proficient at. Turning to Kathy for help was no mistake. What a blessing she has been to us and the growth of our business! Kathy patiently walked us through the steps of designing our website to the finished product that we are extremely happy with. She was able to take our ideas and mold them into the design that we see today on the web. Suggestions were offered as needed, and her guidance, based on her design experience ,was greatly appreciated. Our website looks professional, is inclusive of all that we offer through our business, is welcoming, and can be navigated easily. Not only did the finished product turn out great, but Kathy is very efficient at managing the site for us. Changes and updates which we request are made in a timely fashion, and all other details (domain requirements, etc) are handled through Kathy. Her help has given us the time to do what we do best in the operation of our business. We are proud to have the representation that we do through our website. “The proof is in the pudding”, as the saying goes. Check out her work: www.fairviewfarmandguestranch.com Many thanks to Kathy at Katherine Martin Design for her great work!
“I would highly recommend Katherine Martin Design for your website and designing needs. She created two web sites for our non-profit organization. We found that she is extremely affordable and helped us go through the process to define the purpose of our sites and the intended audience. She set them up quickly and with easily customizable pages that require minimal technical expertise. It is easy to edit and change our pages and when we have any questions, Katherine responds quickly and is ready to help with not only technical, but any other page assistance support we need. Thank you for all of your help and we look forward to continuing to use this company for our designing plans.”
“I wanted to share and thank you immensely for the fantastic job/service you have provided to and for The Penny Saver’s website design and implementation. You made the whole process very easy, from our first thought process of what we wanted to the reality of it. I will keep you and your talents abreast of new clients,as well as pass your name and number on to new prospects. Thank you again.”
“I have used Katherine Martin Design over the past 6 years for many events, banquets, and business logos. Every time she exceeds my expectations. Kathy is fast, skilled, reasonable, very easy to work with, and determined to ensure her clients are 100% satisfied.”
“Katherine designed the TCCCC website for us and we have been extremely pleased. She listened carefully to our needs and organized everything in easy to use menus to permit users to quickly retrieve updates on our watershed projects. She is great to work with, quick to respond to requests to update the information, and offers suggestions to help improve not only the appearance but also user-friendly options for navigating the site. We have received many compliments on the site. “
“As new, small business owners, we were looking for ways to make ourselves known. We had purchased an established business, but while keeping many of the products sold by the previous owners, we wanted to make the business “our own”. One of our challenges was how to go about updating the existing Website. Katherine, from Katherine Martin Design, proved to be just the resource we needed in order for us to do this. She skillfully, and carefully guided us through the process which frankly, was a mystery to us. She provided ideas on how to make changes, add information, and bring our vision forward. She also gave us the room to do this at our own pace. We would highly recommend Katherine to any new, or established, business, that is looking for a “partner” knowledgeable in Web design.”
