Resume






Elise Stukenberg
Graphic, Web, and Visual Designer  + Project Manager
Tacoma, WA
Design generalist. Project wrangler. Photo/video kid at heart.

I’m currently designing for climate action at Cascadia Consulting Group — blending graphic design, UX, and project coordination to support sustainability efforts primarily on a state level. I’ve worked across marketing, packaging, and ed-tech, and I’m recently certified in project management (because chaos deserves a roadmap). Available for freelance — especially the weird, the local, and the impact-driven.

Although I am a design cameleon, there are styles that I enjoy the most and practice in:
  • Block Printing
  • Bauhaus
  • Collage and a little punk Po-Mo
