Where ordinary gets left behind.

Branding isn’t just about what you say—it’s about what they feel. It’s the impression you leave, the emotion you evoke, and the connection you build. At our core, we understand that your audience doesn’t just buy products or services—they buy a feeling, a connection, a piece of you. By getting deep into what makes your audience tick, we put together verbal and visual brand experiences that resonate on a human level, creating brands that are more than just names—they’re emotions that last.

No fluff, just high f*cking standards
01. Be Fun & Try

We aren't afraid of challenging ourselves. Serious about the work but never too serious to have fun, we lead with confidence and stay open to learning, growing, and evolving.

02. Empathy 4ever

Empathy drives everything we do. We get deep into understanding our clients and their audiences, so we can truly connect with their perspectives, strengths, and challenges.

03. Future Proofing

With research and strategy, we shape a vision for your brand’s future—guidelines and identities that evolve with the times while staying true to their core. Whether building from scratch or refining what’s already there, we make sure your brand stays relevant and impactful.

04. Community Building

We bravely explore the full spectrum of the human experience, through stories that build connections. We aim to build a community around brands.

Who is Cindy Rochlen?

I’m not just a creative director, graphic designer, or storyteller—I’m a bridge-builder. Growing up in Chicago with Guatemalan and Indigenous roots, I’ve always had to move between different worlds. As a first-gen, no-sabo Spanglish speaker, adapting and connecting wasn’t just a skill—it was survival. That same energy fuels my creative work. My background and years of experience give me a unique edge to bring ideas to life. Whether it’s cracking audience psychology, mastering design experiments, or creating visuals that connect with people, I’ve got the vision and the vibe to make it happen.

Work hard, laugh harder.

I work with a smart crew of freelancers and clients who know how to get things done without losing the fun. Sometimes I’m a lone wolf, but when the project calls for it, I run with a pack. Either way, we’re here to deliver results. Think of us like a well-organized flash mob—focused, efficient, and always creating something great.

I've had the pleasure of working with Cindy for nearly two decades, and I can confidently say that she is an exceptionally talented and knowledgeable creative director. Her unwavering passion, innovative thinking, and dedication to every project we've collaborated on have consistently led to outstanding results. Cindy's ability to inspire and guide her clients, coupled with her eye for detail and trendsetting ideas, make her an invaluable asset. Her creative vision has consistently transformed my projects into true works of art. I am looking forward to many more years of collaboration with Cindy!

Cindy is the total package. Many designers I've worked with in the past just wanted to stay in the visual side of things, but Cindy is able to think strategically as well. The visuals she creates are amazing, but I found her biggest value to be her ability to understand marketing as a whole. She gets the message you want to portray and always comes up with really clear and effective ways to portray it. When thinking of who would be the best person to help with a creative project, for me, its Cindy every time.

I've had the pleasure of working with Cindy twice. We worked in different divisions at Human Capital Media, and I was so impressed by the quality of her work that I recommended she be brought in again when Human Capital Media (now Workforce.com) needed new graphic design help. Cindy is an amazing designer and art director. She works very well given minimal instructions and can create beautiful design. Her passion for creativity shines through in the quality of her work.
