Helen ✨ Ryan's Linkedin Analytics

A tech geek who loves my Mac (and chocolate), I'm a creative pro, graphic designer, and marketing strategist who also helps clients land media features. In a former life I was a rock music writer/photographer and fitness pro. 📝 WHAT DO I DO, YOU ASK? Aside from drinking espresso, I work with entrepreneurs and businesses to increase their visibility, create or refresh their marketing materials, and get noticed by potential clients and customers. I also (drumroll)... Design professional websites that meet accessibility standards, offer a great visitor experience, and rank higher in search engines (with SEO and PR backlinks). Print design is my jam, and I have (maybe too much) experience with it. Yet as a tech nerd, I'm also into the digital space. Learning completes me. 🙋‍♀️ LET'S CONNECT If you need help with: • Graphic design projects or software • Marketing • PR I'm available 1:1 by the hour, half day, or a full VIP experience (but wait! There's more...) 🌟 https://chattingwithhelen.com TLDR: I come from the days when wax rollers were a thing in graphic design and Photoshop didn’t have layers. When I jumped into the online space, it was love at first byte. As a: • Graphic designer • Web designer • Marketing strategist ...I’ve worked with clients large and small while sometimes traveling the world as a digital nomad. When I started landing media mentions in the mid-2000s, I discovered I was good at sharing stories people wanted to read. Why not help others do the same? Software is the meaning of life and I'm skilled with: Adobe Creaive Cloud / Suite • Photoshop • InDesign • Illustrator • Acrobat Canva (yes, really) PowerPoint Descript Microsoft Office 📸 The Side Hustles As side gigs, I wore spandex/lycra for over 15 years as a certified personal trainer and spinning/group exercise instructor after losing more than 80 pounds naturally. I've written several book on losing weight while still eating chocolate and host a walking podcast (Walking & Talking with Helen) that motivates people to start moving. Other gigs include a stint as a rock concert photographer and entertainment writer. That was epic, and it taught me so much about persistence and taking bold action. You can't quit in the photo pit.
