Hi, I’m Liz Ha
(like you’re laughing)

I’m a Creative Director (Art), born and raised in Houston, Texas.

I’ve lived in Chicago, Singapore, Boston, and now call New York home.

My career started with making club flyers for some interesting establishments by day and slinging boba tea by night. I didn’t realize those flyers could turn into a real job—and here I am, over 10 years later, still creating and loving every minute of it.

I’ve worked across broadcast, social, digital and experiential, bringing big ideas to life in all formats. I’m passionate about good design and finding creative solutions to any challenge.

When I’m not at my desk, you can find me obsessing over skincare, exploring the outdoors, or being overly confident trying new arts and crafts that have a 50/50 success rate (nail art, no problem, the winter I tried to make croquembouche, not so much).

If you’re looking for someone who can turn nothing into something, let’s chat. Reach out anytime for full-time or freelance opportunities.
