About Caryn, founder of Calliope Design, portrait illustration

Nice to meet you virtually!

Thanks for stopping by. I’m Caryn, the human behind Calliope Design.

I’m from the Midwest, where people are genuinely kind. I’m a proud cat mom and a wanderluster at heart. My Kundalini yoga practice keeps me grounded, and hiking trails are my happy place.

Strong mutual connection with others is at the heart of lasting relationships. And, success relies on nurturing the things that matter most. The relationship between your brand and your customer is the beginning of a romance that builds trust, recognition, and meaningful connections. Great branding and design are about creating a love story—being the one customers return to over and over.

Creativity is a part of my DNA. I blend intuition with practical solutions, staying aware of trends without necessarily following them. My career began by collaborating with a range of diverse companies and marketing agencies, bringing their projects to life. Art has always been a significant part of my life, which led me to work with homeowners to create custom mosaic art, infusing beauty and personality into their homes. Simultaneously, I worked with passionate small business owners, helping them develop brand identities that truly resonate with their audiences. This blend of experiences has equipped me with a unique perspective and the ability to deliver tailored, distinctive design solutions for every client.

Whether you’re launching a new initiative, refreshing your brand, or tackling specific design projects, I’m here to make the process smooth and efficient. Each project follows a systematic approach that blends strategic thinking with creativity, always keeping your goals in mind. With fresh perspectives, open communication, and a collaborative spirit, we can bring your vision to life in the most impactful way.
