Elizaveta Nor

Creative Producer, Art Director and Brand Strategist

Hi! It’s Lisa here

I am always open to cooperation in the field of leading creative teams and coordinating projects connected to content and media production, art, tech, and education.

With a purpose-driven mentality, I have a growth mindset combining creativity, self-management, and effective communication. I am proactive, and always looking to learn and improve.

My approach while leading teams is to create conditions for self-organisation and clearly articulate the context. So colleagues have everything they need to take initiative, achieve goals and grow while enjoying the working process.

The area of my research is media, philosophical and political processes through the prism of digitalisation. I am passionate about ecology and human rights. I value awareness, empathy, co-creation highly in my work.

Hobbies – literature and photography.

Testimonials

  • Liza was an absolute pleasure to work with. For 1.5 years, she was my right-hand woman assisting me with growing my coaching company and managing the operations side. I highly recommend Liza for her creative work: she has a unique sensitivity and understanding of what works and what doesn't from an aesthetic perspective. I loved the work she did with helping me manage content creation (across multiple media including content, writing, and video) and making sure that everything that came out of the company properly represented the brand and the aesthetics/feelings of it. She's a lovely human to work with and I hope you get that privilege!

  • It was amazing to work with Liza, she has made the project of my dreams come true! I was delighted by her clear communication and visual style. All of my needs and requirements have been understood and met. The job was done quicker than I expected and I was extremely satisfied with the result. We’ve discussed all of the details thoroughly and set a specific goal that has been achieved. If I was to describe our cooperation in one word it would be “Art”. I am a photographer, so my job is deeply connected to art, and unfortunately, developers rarely understand the creative needs that are essential for a website of a creator. However, Liza can perfectly combine creativity with functionality. If you want a creative, modern and aesthetically appealing website that will catch the eye of the customers, this is the place to go! I think the girls are one of the best on the market. Working with them was a very pleasant experience and I wish them good luck on their future projects!

  • Working with the team of skilled professionals was a huge delight for me. I felt supported in my vision for my brand even though over the years I have been lost and without a clear direction forward. Girls made plenty of time for me to get clear on our work together and then once we made a plan, executed everything brilliantly. I have worked with other people in similar fields in the past with less success and I am not only pleased with how far we have come together, but also looking forward to the wonderful things we will create in the future. Girls are sincere creative professionals with an excellent eye for detail, all while managing every project within deadlines and making sure the vision for the brand is intact. I can’t recommend their talents enough, I can guarantee you will feel cared for in their very capable hands.
