About:

After graduating cum laude from Smith College and studying print making at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, I moved to New York City and launched Leslie Evans Design Associates (LEDA, Inc.).  My design work was well received in New York. 

My roster of clients expanded quickly and included many major publications and manufacturers, including People Magazine, Redbook, Timex, Timberland.

I relocated my design studio to Portland, Maine five years after launching LEDA, Inc.
My client list continued to grow and I expanded my design staff to accommodate the increased volume of work.  I designed and art directed major branding , advertising, sales and marketing and PR campaigns for Esprit, Van Heusen, Hathaway, Liz Claiborne, Rockport, Georgia Pacific, Bass Shoe, Cole Haan, LL Bean, Lindt Chocolate, Stonewall Kitchen and other internationally recognized companies.

I consider my core strengths to be brand development (logo development and design in particular), art direction for both print and electronic media, and package design. I have posted examples of my work on my web site. 

At this point in my career I am working independently and taking on select design and branding projects that align with my specific interests and areas of expertise.  When necessary, I draw from a network of seasoned independent photographers, artists, illustrators, copywriters and production people.  These are highly talented and experienced individuals with whom I’ve worked in the past.  They understand my particular design aesthetic and have proven their ability to produce work that meets my standards, stays within budget and delivers on schedule.

I live in Harpswell Maine near the ocean which I have always loved.
