EllaKat Studio
Ella Kat specializes in branding, marketing, and promotional content across the music, event, and creative industries, with a focus on independent artists, local bands, and community-based projects throughout Nevada County and surrounding areas.
The goal is not simply to push content for the sake of visibility, but to create branding and media that feels intentional, engaging, and connected to the identity behind the project. In a digital landscape saturated with advertising and constant self-promotion, I’m drawn to work that feels grounded, creative, and genuinely human.
From flyers, reels, photography, and social media campaigns to newsletters, websites, and event promotion, I work closely with clients to develop visuals and messaging that reflect the atmosphere, emotion, and experience they want their audience to connect with.
Whether promoting live music, local events, small businesses, or creative projects, the focus remains the same: authentic branding that brings people together through real experiences, community, and visual storytelling.

Creative Background
My background combines branding, marketing, event coordination, and visual content creation across creative, nonprofit, retail, and music-based industries.
At Cal Poly Pomona ASI BEAT, I coordinated and promoted both in-person and virtual university events from planning through execution, including event logistics, flyer creation, digital promotion, setup and breakdown, and team coordination through platforms such as Monday.com and Microsoft Teams.
At Solstice in Nevada City, I managed Shopify updates, social media content creation, MetaBusiness scheduling, branding materials, flyer design, and visual marketing for costume, vintage, and resale retail.
As Marketing & Programs Assistant for NEO Youth Center, I worked closely with local artists, bands, vendors, and community programs while managing daily social media engagement, Hootsuite scheduling, photography, visual editing, monthly email newsletters, and promotional content designed to maintain a cohesive and recognizable brand presence.
My experience with KVMR Community Radio expanded into nonprofit media marketing, including WordPress website management, volunteer scheduling through VolunteerMatters.org, flyer and postcard creation, and community event promotion.
Today, I continue working with musicians and creative clients throughout Nevada County and the surrounding areas to strengthen their branding, online presence, audience engagement, and promotional strategy through cohesive visual marketing and content creation.
