Designs that amplify Appalachian stories
Hi, there! I’m Tara Leisure. I help organizations, advocates and creative folks stand out with designs that capture who they really are.
I specialize in creating brand identities—logos, color palettes, and typography—alongside publication design for reports, brochures, flyers, and digital experiences that get your message across. Through creative direction, I guide the overall look and feel of your projects to ensure every detail tells your story.
Together, we’ll craft something that inspires optimism and builds sincere relationships, all while centering your vision.
Let’s rally your people!


Your go-to partner for branding that matters
Collaboration is at the heart of what we will do together. I love teaming up with leaders and fellow creatives to turn ideas into something special.
With nearly a decade of experience in branding and marketing for higher education and rural nonprofits, I have the tools you need to make your work shine in front of all the right people.
A life's work should mean something. That's why I choose projects that match my core values and expertise.
If you or your organization is focused on any of the following, let’s connect!
Art, music and theater – celebrating creativity and the stories that move us.Economic development in Appalachia – strengthening our vibrant communities.
Education and access to fresh food – equitable learning and combating food insecurity.
Environmental advocacy – supporting the work toward a healthier planet and sustainable future.
Equality and safety – standing with those who fight for justice and inclusion for all.
