I’m the Zoë of ZoePDX. I’m a lover of the perfect words, a true believer in kindness, and an advocate of smart simplicity. My design career started over a decade ago as the in-house creative at a little winery in the Willamette Valley. Very quickly I learned that the intersection of strategic thinking, design and technology is the key to creating an effective brand presence. When not at my desk I’m either out running, in the kitchen with friends, or en route to someplace I’ve never been.
