After working in Boston for six years, Elizabeth returned to her hometown of Baltimore and joined Skelton Design in 2007. In Boston, she advanced to senior graphic designer at Christopher Chadbourne and Associates, managing and art directing multiple designers in the creation of nationally recognized museum exhibitions such as the National Museum of the Marine Corps. From there, she went to Harvard University as a senior graphic designer in Communications, Alumni Affairs and Development. She is particularly adept at assimilating and organizing extensive amounts of material into original, elegantly conceived printed work.

Kevin is the other half of the talented Sprouls team. In Boston, he created exhibition design for the National Park System, among other clients, during his four years at Main Street Design. Transitioning into print work, he freelanced for many of Boston’s top design firms before moving to Barrett Communications where he directed projects from inception through production. In addition to his accomplished print design skills, Kevin’s extensive knowledge of website development and design add invaluable depth to the team, and his adept use of typography carries on the studio’s tradition of emphasis on type design.
