Michelle Lile – Designer

Graphic designer with 20+ years experience, loves print and typography. Excited to work with authors to create professional book designs!

Overview

I've been a graphic designer for over 20 years, working closely with clients to brainstorm and bring their publications to life. I'm all about print and typography, but I've also been getting stuck into designing for digital publications, making sure they're accessible.


I'm a bit of a stickler for detail, especially when it comes to typography, typesetting, and layout – you could say I'm a bit of a geek!


Now, I'm on the lookout for projects I can really get my teeth into. I'm keen to team up with authors to create some cracking and professional-looking books. I'm especially interested in gaining experience in different genres. Let's make something brilliant together!

Let's bring your project to life!

Had a wonderful experience with Michele. I had taken a shot at typesetting my own manuscript as a first-time user of Adobe InDesign but had no idea how to turn it into an epub. Michelle not only did an excellent job of this in a fairly quick required turnaround; she also was a great help in teaching me more about InDesign. She helped me clean up errors in my print version and showed me how to e...
