A few months ago, we posted our first job opening for a freelance-to-hire designer. Knowing our situation wasn’t the norm, we thought “Who’d want to work with a married couple?” Well, Liz Cook did. We knew she had potential as our third wheel when she applied for the position: “Well-Rounded Designer Looking for Like-Minded Duo to Form Creative Tricycle.” After several interviews with very talented applicants and after much deliberation, we agreed Liz was the gal for the job.

Liz is full of talent and wit. She brings a warmth and positive outlook to work with her every day, and she wears a pocket square better than any girl we’ve seen. Fast-forward three months, and we’re thrilled to announce that it’s officially official: Liz is a Designer at Knoed Creative.

Liz comes to Knoed with 6 years of experience and a soft spot for canines. When she’s not cuddling with her basset hound, Henry, she’s either art directing her apartment or scouring estate sales for vintage goods. Her latest find was a $10 washboard that she plans to use as an instrument. Recently, she was a member of the Moving Design Initiative and a TA at The Starter League, and she’s now one of the volunteers for CreativeMornings. Here’s a few works by Liz that stole our hearts. To see more, stop by her website. Or feel free to just say hi.
