Hello! I’m an artist and a visual storyteller, but I also love solving puzzles and am drawn to the infectious energy that follows someone with a vision for a better world. That's why I started working in graphic design and why so much of my current work is with small businesses, entrepreneurs and non-profits. The causes closest to my heart are environmental preservation, women and girl empowerment, and the visual arts. If you have a project you'd like to work together on, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Outside of bringing stories to life, I'm passionate about supporting my community and spend much of my time outdoors and in the White Mountains. Some of my other favorite things are painting and being with friends and family.
— Kaitlyn (Kati) Ripaldi, YellowLeaf Design
"We considered more than 10 designers before choosing YellowLeaf Design. Kati Ripaldi was simply the best fit for what we needed. She is collaborative, creative, and had an immediate feel for the vibe we were trying to capture. Kaitlyn is timely, organized and professional to boot."
— Matthew, Lake Life Brand
"Kati is talented. Her patience with not only her clients, but her own work and the creative process makes her a pleasure to work with.The cover she created for my podcast show looks great. It serves the design purpose AND fits my personal taste. I already know I will work with her again the future."

"Loved working with Kaitlyn! We had a fast approaching deadline, and she was super easy to work with, as well as wonderfully talented and precise. Highly recommend her for any branding/graphic design needs, and look forward to working together again."
