Hi, I’m Liz Walshak.

I am a UX/UI designer & visual designer currently living in Boston, MA. I have worked as a freelance graphic designer for nearly a decade as a merchandise designer, poster and album cover artist for musicians.

When I’m not designing, I can be found teaching school children about punk rock, traveling, biking, and hanging out with my two cats.

“Working with Liz never actually feels like work. Every time we've approached her with a design idea, whether relatively fleshed out or completely vague, she's greeted us with an open and collaborative mind and has delivered exactly what we had hoped for but couldn't possibly achieve on our own. Shared creative vision coupled with the ability to both elevate and execute is a hard thing to come by and we've always felt very lucky finding that in Liz.”
