good works: 
The Meaning Behind the Name of the studio

After more than 17 years in a fast-paced career in art direction, graphic design, and marketing, I felt a clear need for a shift in priorities. As both a creative and a Christian, I believe what we choose to honor each day ultimately shapes our lives, and I felt called to move away from striving for the things of this world toward time and work rooted in connection, community, and service to one another.

Second Pine Design was named to mark that calling—a second chance at a new way of life, a studio grounded in faith and service, using the creative gifts God has entrusted to me to support business owners and the people they serve. It’s a reminder that strong brands, like strong communities, should be built to last: authentically, and with care and intention.

For we are his workmanship, created in christ jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
