Hi there! My name is Kisira Hill.
I moved from the West Coast to Chicago in 2016 and discovered my passion for event curation in the food and beverage industry. Through this, I gained knowledge in graphic design, illustration, brand design, social media, campaigns, and content strategies by hosting, participating in, and producing events and creative content. Like many industries, I was also prompted to adapt. Over the past five years, I have expanded my creativity beyond event curation and established my graphic design company, Kisira Hill Designs,
I have had the privilege of working with various established brands, emerging businesses, and individual creatives since the inception of Kisira Hill Designs. Some of my clients include Diageo, Pernod Ricard, Brown Foreman, J.P. Wiser's, Wade Cellars, Campari Group, Lush Life Productions (SirDavis by proxy), Brown and Balanced, No Small Plans, Focus on Health, and other brands/creatives in the hospitality and beverage industry. My focus is on designing graphic projects that are inclusive and visually captivating. These projects include visual spreads, informational pamphlets, calendars, and various promotional digital content. By working with more prominent brands with larger budgets, I am able to consistently offer my services to small businesses, nonprofits, and local community organizations on a sliding scale.
Freelance design work has allowed me to wear many hats; from 2020 to 2024, I put all of these hats to great use in co-founding a multimedia platform, SPILL, with my then business partner, David Mor. We collectively hosted Anthropological [podcast], curated and designed our tri-annual print titled Guest Check, which is available for purchase digitally or in print, along with hosting HUSLTES, our small-business database, and traveling event series.
As a true Gemini with the adaptability of a retired service industry professional, I’ve cemented myself as a “jack of all trades” in design, art direction, and event production/execution.
In today’s digital landscape, it is essential for all businesses to have access to intentional branding, graphic design, and social media content creation services. As a creator, I strive to produce creative digital content for brands and companies, focusing on intersectionality, advocacy, and visual representation of marginalized communities in their projects.
