Dani Nordin, designer/zen warrior princess

Dani Nordin is the founder and principal designer of the zen kitchen (not to mention the one that does most of the cooking). She has over 10 years of experience designing award-winning work for small to large businesses and non-profits. Her work has appeared in such publications as Rockport’s LogoLounge III and Branded by Début Publications. In addition to keeping the zen kitchen cooking, Dani is an accomplished writer on the subjects of green design, the design business, marketing and ethically-driven business. Her work has appeared in the Holistic Business Journal, Boston Women’s Business and Creative Latitude, an online community of creative professionals. She also maintains a business blog called Notes from the zen kitchen where she talks about her experiences as a business owner. To keep herself sane, Dani also spends time reading the various books and magazines she’s yet to get to, journaling, meditating, doing yoga, and cooking - she even gets to throw the occasional dinner party!

Occasionally, just to shift things around a bit, Dani also likes to work on-site with different companies to assist with design and (occasionally) production work. Need some extra help on your team? Download a resumé or a sample sheet to keep on file for your upcoming projects.
