I’m Colleen Gratzer
I’ve been in the design industry since 1997. I have been there, done that, seen it all—the good, the bad and the ugly.
I experienced all of the typical obstacles that freelancers face. It was so frustrating!
But I overcame these obstacles and have had a successful business since 2003.
I want to help you overcome these obstacles too and be a confident and respected designer-expert.
