My Bio

Hey there! I’m Anja, the colourful individual behind Notch (plus one very fluffy sidekick).

I’m a Scarborough-based designer who’s all about creating bold, playful, and personality-packed branding for small businesses. Notch came to life because I needed a rebrand for my own art business, and quickly realised there weren’t many local options for affordable, fun design that didn’t come from a big agency. So, I created the thing I was looking for.

With a background in events, marketing, and running a small creative business, I threw myself into research, learning, and connecting with other small businesses. After a few months of planning and upskilling, I officially launched Notch, and in May 2024, I took the leap to go fully self-employed.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or need a refresh, I design everything from logos and websites to print materials and social media templates. I also love bringing a playful touch through custom illustrations that can give your brand something truly unique.

My Business Tips

Networking isn’t just about selling, it’s about connecting. Some of my best opportunities have come from simply showing up, being myself, and having genuine conversations. You never know who knows someone who needs exactly what you do.
