Hello! I’m Sarah and I’m the face behind Snowshoe Design Studio.
I’m a graphic designer and artist based out of Seattle with a love for branding and illustrative work, but I also enjoy branching out and taking on various web and print projects. When I'm not designing, I’m a massive fan of soaking up the sun & nature, spending quality time with my husband and loved ones, my two cats, and creating art in various mediums.
Testimonials
Sarah is incredible to work with. She is amazing - very skilled, creative, professional and hard working. I loved working with her on my book. It's like she could read my mind - and in doing so, achieved results far beyond any expectations. Always willing to help and trouble shoot, educate, facilitate. I would hire her again for my next project in a heartbeat.

We hired Sarah to redesign our webpage (as it was in dire need of revamp). Sarah was professional, communicative, insightful, and worked within our timeline. Our webpage looks great and is exactly what we envisioned it to be! We couldn't be happier with the results!

"Her outstanding design work and creative input have greatly contributed to the success of our communication goals. She always delivers excellent results and gets quality work done quickly. Beyond her creative talent and time management skills, Ms. Westby stands out for her ability to work with clients to bring design ideas to life. She is a staff favorite here in the regional office and is a joy to work with. I frequently get compliments on how easy and fun it is to work with her, and staff excitedly show off her latest creations when they are complete. She has a remarkable ability to connect with people and understand their needs to quickly create communication products that make an impact."

I was recommended to use Sarah for a wedding Logo from a close friend. She went absolutely above and beyond, my husband and I were so happy! We were able to have cups, hats, and other misc. items made with this, and it all looks SO good! In some email exchanges, I learned that she also builds websites and helps small businesses with getting things up and going, and I utilized her for my business as Copper Rose Weddings & Events LLC. Again, to no surprise she exceeded my expectations with logos, website build, tutorial videos for me to update things on my own, designing business cards, signs, and SO much more. Overall, I can’t even begin to recommend her enough, she took my vision and made it reality for my business, and I firmly believe that I could not have done it without her help. Forever grateful for Sarah and her skills, as I definitely don’t have the knowledge to build what she has built for me! THANK YOU!!

"Sarah interned for Recoup while we were developing our new brand identity. She created an iconography system that we implemented across our brand assets, including packaging. She also developed illustrations and templates that we use across the brand and on social media. She was able to translate complex briefs into great work, communicating her perspective on strategy while delivering work that was on brief and on brand. She is a talented illustrator, a great designer and a pleasure to work with!"
