WHO AM I...
Hi, I’m Desrie’ Horan—a graphic designer and photographer with a heart for storytelling and a mind wired for creativity.
For over 15 years, I’ve worked in the nonprofit world, where I’ve sharpened my skills in visual design and photography while helping organizations communicate what matters most. I believe good design isn’t just about looking great—it’s about connection, clarity, and impact.
I’m a self-proclaimed nerd who loves learning, experimenting, and finding new ways to bring ideas to life. Whether I’m building a brand, capturing a moment behind the lens, or diving into a new creative challenge, I’m always chasing that spark of inspiration.
Outside of my work, I’m deeply rooted in service. I currently volunteer as a court advocate for foster children and as a wildlife rehabilitation volunteer—experiences that continue to shape how I see the world and the stories I choose to tell.
And above all, I’m a proud single mom of two amazing grown kids—my greatest and most meaningful creation.
