MEET YOUR DESIGNER

Hey there, I’m Karrin — a storyteller and web designer based in Washington, DC. My work is rooted in my love of books and commitment to amplifying Black and Brown stories. I believe the stories we tell and how we tell them shape what’s possible for ourselves and the people we hope to reach.

I approach web design the same way I approach storytelling: with clarity, intention, and narrative at the center. Every project begins with understanding your vision and your voice, then crafting thoughtful, strategic websites and brands that feel personal, cohesive, and ready to expand your reach.

At Book’d By Design, we work with storytellers and literary brands helping them to step fully into the spotlight as the main character of their own work. Working with me is a guided, story-first process that ensures your website and brand connect deeply with your audience and reflects the story only you can tell.

Together, we’ll create a space that feels fully you, ready for the world to see.
