The playful fish logo formed by Ellie's initials is emblematic of her design philosophy. Ellie strives to be a leader in all aspects of her life and thrives in supportive, team-driven cultures where every member can feel like “a big fish in a small pond”. Numerous cultures consider the fish to represent creativity, loyalty, wisdom, success, strength, and joy. Fish are energetic, agile and determined, swimming their own way, even against the current, to achieve their goals. They are even willing to leave their comfort zone and jump out of the water when necessary. Fish are inquisitive explorers who can withstand incredible pressure to reach great depths. Ellie's designs reflect her analytical thinking, imaginative ingenuity, whimsical flair, sense of fun and curiosity, tenacious work ethic and optimistic attitude, all represented by the fish logo.
