My journey as a designer began at The Matthews Group, where I had the privilege of working under Creative Director Drew Matthews. It was there, surrounded by creativity and unwavering support, that I discovered my passion for design—not just as an art form, but as a powerful tool for impact. I became fascinated by businesses that understood their influence on the world and knew that I wanted to help them show up in a way that truly felt like them.
In May of 2024, I proudly graduated with a degree in Graphic Design, ready to take on the world. But I didn’t want to just follow a traditional path. I wanted to create a life that combined my love for design, business, and adventure. So, I packed my bags and moved to Paris, France, determined to build something meaningful on my own terms.
Moving abroad alone at 22 has been the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life. Learning from different cultures, immersing myself in new perspectives, and constantly pushing myself outside my comfort zone has shaped me - not just as a designer, but as an entrepreneur. It’s this same passion that I now bring to Claire Renee Creative.
I know what it’s like to have big dreams and a vision for something more. I also know how overwhelming it can feel when your brand isn’t aligned with where you want to go. That’s why I built Claire Renee Creative - to help entrepreneurs step into their power, scale with confidence, and create a brand that reflects who they truly are.
One of the greatest influences on my creativity has been my travels. Exploring new places, experiencing different cultures, and seeing the world through fresh eyes fuels my inspiration and shapes my approach to design.
"Working with Claire has been the best business decision I have made! She is extremely thoughtful, and creative, asks great questions, and was able to help me come up with authentic branding. I have been attracting customers that are a perfect match."
