Emma FitzGerald holds a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design, with additional studies in marketing and illustration. A Maine native, she returned to her home state to build her career and raise her family, drawn by the landscapes, communities, and sense of place that continue to shape her work.
With over 15 years of experience in marketing, art direction, and brand leadership, Emma has guided both emerging and established brands through thoughtful, purpose-driven campaigns. She spent many years thriving as a freelance designer and marketing professional before serving as Art Director at a leading publishing and media firm in Southern Maine.
Today, as a member of Knickerbocker Group’s collaborative team, Emma leads and supports marketing and brand strategy. Her work blends strategy, design, and narrative to create meaningful connections—always grounded in mission, values, and authentic collaboration.
Passionate about visual storytelling, typography, and the power of environment, Emma brings a wholistic, creative approach to her work. She finds inspiration in Maine’s natural beauty, in nurturing creativity with her family, and in the ongoing exploration of design, storytelling, and place. For Emma, Maine is not just home—it is a continual source of curiosity and creative energy.
