Hello! I am Andrea Nyberg, the owner and designer of NOYA design studio. I live in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina with my partner and two Belgian Malinois in a house that basically serves as a time capsule from the 1970’s. We are slowly chipping away at updates, learning some things the hard way and enjoying the process. I spend my time away from branding working on the garden or making silversmith jewelry in my home studio, selling it online and in local shops.

I spent over 10 years working for large companies, freelancing in San Francisco as a photo stylist, designer and overall creative. From that experience I learned a lot about organization, streamlining production, marketing and how to get projects done efficiently. Over time the impact that I was making in the corporate world did not align with my goals and I took the leap to set out on my own with hopes of making a positive effect on the world. I am happy that I did so and looking forward to continue working with authentic and motivated people.
