Connect with local creative solopreneurs and build a business

We’ve had a fantastic year of Solopreneur meetings. We’ve covered strategic planning for your business, getting productive, and developing breakthrough creative. We had a summer of money, talked about design heroes, and partnering with In House designers.
At our December meeting, we will spend some time looking back and celebrating our businesses. We’ll discuss:
  • New clients or new business you’ve landed
  • Projects that went well
  • Successfully handing the hard times
  • New connections, partners and colleagues
Please bring your celebrations and successes to share. We hope to see you there! Some light snacks will be provided.

Schedule

Leah Meilander
Chair of Solopreneurs
I am Freelance Visual Designer and Artist based in Bloomington, MN. I have over a decade of experience with brand identities, designing for print & digital, website design, event design, as well as marketing strategy & planning. Overall, I'm more of a generalist who specializes in brand strategy, graphic design, and web design.

In addition to being a freelance designer, I am also a lettering and illustration artist. A lot of my custom hand-drawn work appears in my client projects.

When Iā€™m not designing or drawing, I enjoy climbing/bouldering, lifting, going to movies, dancing, and hanging out with family & friends.
