Our Story
I can still vividly recall starting my first “side hustle” at the age of 12—Carley’s Catalogs. I would sell my drawings and I even had this menu where I’d offer markers, crayons, or colored pencils. Nostalgic, right? From then on I fell in love with dreaming up a brand, not just for me but for anyone willing to to dream with me. Why? Well, setting out on the adventure of bringing a brand to life became my passion…but I didn’t know it yet.
Fast forward to the pandemic, and I stumbled upon the phrase “Make Heaven Crowded” on Pinterest. It hit me—this phrase needed to be on a shirt, and pronto! So, I made it happen, creating the logo, color scheme, website, and all the exciting things that come together to showcase a brand. But, life took a unexpected turn in June of 2022 when I lost my mom to cancer.
Suddenly, Make Heaven Crowded wasn’t just a catchy phrase—it turned into a dire call to action. Losing my mom made it painfully clear: I am here to spread the good news, to spread hope, to grow the Kingdom of God. This hope I’ve found in Christ and knowing I’ll see my mom again in heaven was my life raft in a sea of grief. And that’s where the mission began.
I began to merge my passion of creating brands with the calling all of us believers have: and thats where Make Heaven Crowded (the studio version) was born. I found my true passion—turning ambitious business ideas into reality for the Kingdom of God— digitally. When we work together we realize that this is more than just our livelihood, we are working with heaven in mind...we are working with eternity in mind.
Welcome to the Make Heaven Crowded Studio—a place for the fellow dreamers and creatives whose desire is to spread
HOPE.
Our Values
01. Purpose
02. Collaboration
03. Hope
At Make Heaven Crowded Studio, we believe the most impactful brands are those that align with a higher purpose. We design not just for the present, but with eternity in mind. Each element we create serves as a reflection of your core mission to glorify God. We take great care to ensure that your brand communicates what is at the core of your mission. Like the Kingdom we work to expand, your brand is meant to evolve—transforming and flourishing as you bring your vision to life.
We see ourselves not just as creators but as partners on this mission with you. Every project begins with a deep understanding of your heart, your vision, and your purpose. Your business isn’t just a livelihood; it’s a reflection of your faith, a vessel for spreading hope, and an avenue for touching lives. We are here to listen, to guide, and to create something that feels uniquely yours. Throughout the process, we treat you not just as a client, but as a friend.
Our work is deeply rooted in the belief that what we create today has the power to make an eternal impact. Inspired by the promise of heaven and the hope that carries us through, we design brands that are more than just visually striking—they are beacons of light in a world that desperately needs hope. Together, we are not just building businesses; we are planting seeds for eternity, creating legacies that will continue to spread hope long after today.
"But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God."
( ACTS 20:24 )
