That vision in your head?

I can make it real.

I’m Kara Hoganson.

I’m a St. Louis-based creative soul fueled by sarcasm, wanderlust and good design. But mostly carbs. It’s usually here when people advertise if they are coffee/caffeine obsessed, and I feel compelled to let you know that I am not one of those people. I do however have a strong appetite for travel, board games, museums, and advocating for work-life/screen-free balance.

GRAPHIC DESIGN–––

So easy to butcher,
so powerful when done right.

Design is my lifeforce. The second I realized it, I gave up the mermaid dream (at least publicly) and knew exactly what I wanted to do ‘when I grew up’.
