the Story
in 2023, graphic alchemy was initially founded upon the cornerstone realization that small businesses fuel local economy, but many small businesses find themselves lost in the never ending scroll of the modern media sphere. we help clients stand out, and in turn help our own communities.
graphic alchemy utilizes an individualistic approach to both brand and business strategy. we help business owners and fellow marketing professionals take their brand and goals to the next level.
throughout history, alchemy and transmutation has been used to transform natural materials into resources that supplement ingenuity across the world. we apply the same principal to our creative process by turning your brand resources into gold.
we look for and work with unique brands that want to push the boundaries of creativity. combined with our use of different strategies and design applications we can contribute to meaningful content contribution.
Meet the founder
erin aka the alchemist
Hi there, i'm erin! with an initial career in the corporate world, you can trust that i know what lies behind the curtain. i'm an enfp, enneagram 5, who's top 5 clifton strengths are individualization, input, activator, achiever, and strategic. i love getting to know people and companies as individuals to then apply directly to our work.
Working together
what it looks like
as a freelance company, we make our own rules and guidelines to craft the perfect partnership. not keen on calls? no problem, it could have been an email anyway. we work within our own limits and alongside your expectations so the process of working together is as productive as possible.
Who You Are
our collaboration
we aren't keen on doing it the same as everyone else - that's why we freelance. let's break those business taboos and talk about you. After all, successful collaboration starts with transparency.
I'm not a mind reader (yet...). If you have a super special secret idea that you hope I can "just pick up on"... I won't. And that's okay! Even if you don't know exactly what that may be, we can figure it out together.
Clear Communicator
Thinking outside of the box is what I'm great at! Throw those design norms in the TRASH (or at least a Do Not Use folder). Wild idea? Never heard of her! It's only "wild" if you don't give it a shot!
Visionary
If I have a new idea come to me in a dream the night before a deadline, I'll want to explore that! With that said (and because I know myself) we'll always make sure to schedule out with plenty of cushion.
Flexible
Basically, someone who let's me do my thing! You are working with me for my talents and expertise. I'll do the work, and you get to make the decisions! Plus, feedback rounds are always included.
supportive & Decisive

a final note
from erin
if you've made it this far, then congrats! i'd say you deserve some honesty. graphic alchemy truly began because no matter how hard we try, many creatives simply don't work well within the structure of the corporate, 9-5, office atmosphere. we crave the freedom of true ingenuity, to chase an idea without punching a time clock, and a kitty cat helping you along the way (or, at least i do).
when I graduated with my b.a. in marketing/communications and global studies, i thought i was destined to climb that corporate ladder. i ended up jumping off that ladder and landed right onto graphic design with a rediscovered drive to use the talents that were getting crusty dusty in a cubicle, and just freakin' create. so that's exactly what i set out to do, but this time on my terms.
with no boundaries, no limits, and no one telling me to stop, i'm now using my talents to cultivate small businesses, elevate unique thought leaders to the eyes of those that most need to see it, and most of all i'm actively contributing intentional and content among the abundance of ai in the creative fields. if that's not worth the jump, then i don't know what is. thank you for being here. -e.
