Hey, I’m Noël—the heart and hustle behind Echo and Ember Studios. This studio came to life out of my love for blending smart design with killer marketing, all to help small businesses lay down a solid foundation for lasting growth.
I’ve always been a sucker for great design—stylish interiors, swoon-worthy aesthetics, you name it. But it wasn’t until my uni days in marketing that I realized something: looking good isn’t enough; it’s all about performance. Pretty things that do things? That’s where the magic is.
After clocking in years as a digital marketer at agencies and startups, I found my calling—designing brands and websites that are not just chef’s kiss beautiful but bring in actual results. So, I said goodbye to the corporate hustle, hello to Portugal’s sunshine, and created Echo and Ember Studios. Now I get to do what I love most!
My friends would tell you I’m always on the go—whether I’m in the Netherlands (where I’m originally from), or splitting my time between Portugal and the USA.
When I’m not designing websites that pop, you’ll find me baking sourdough like it’s a family tradition (thanks, Dad), in a reformer pilates class, or taking long beach walks to clear my head for whatever comes next.
I’m always ready to dive in headfirst—dedicated, fun-loving, and full of adventure. Bringing the energy (and the results) to everything I do.
Apply today, and I’ll bring your vision to life before your coffee gets cold. Really, I mean it!
