I'm Eleanor Anne Dote, known as Ellie, with over 25 years of experience in graphic design and storytelling. Formerly performing and designing under the name Darryl Dote, I began cultivating my passion for marketing and design back in eighth grade, influenced by early experiences with Photoshop and PageMaker. My first job at a theme park taught me the power of immersive storytelling and emotional connection through diverse campaigns. Transitioning from my Catholic upbringing to Evangelical Christianity deepened my understanding of connecting authentically with audiences. After varied roles in churches, a coffeehouse, and a web design firm, I now run my own business, dedicated to helping individuals and organizations craft meaningful narratives through branding and design, using skills including journalism, AP
