about

Brand Epiphany is a branding studio on a mission to help creatives embrace what makes them different, build a brand they're obsessed with, and book more people they adore serving.

The Mission

Hey there! I’m Amanda Csakan (pronounced “say-can,” since I know you’re totally wondering).

I’m here to help you share who you are, what you do, and why you do it with renewed confidence and clarity. Not to mention the newfound freedom you’ll feel without the usual hesitation over not being “ready” because your brand (or lack thereof) feels more like a temporary solution than a declaration of who you are and what you stand for.

I'm a rare breed: a completely verbal and completely visual thinker at the same time. I pursued both of these passions in school by obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and a Master of Arts in Communication Studies (which is literally the study of how people communicate). After working in the nonprofit world for a while, I launched Brand Epiphany in 2015 and have been building brands and working with amazing people ever since.

I love typography, colors, patterns, and all the little details that go into crafting a beautiful visual identity, but that’s definitely not what I love the most about my work.

For me, in business and in life, it’s always been about people. There’s nothing like being able to get to know someone, to see the heart and vision behind their business, and to shine a light on that. My passion is to empower each person I work with to own what makes them and their business different, and to enable them to truly connect with the clients they love working with the most.

who's running this shindig?

"I LOVE my new brand and have a new clarity: of how to market and put my best foot forward to have a brand that stands out among others."

Amber sullivan, something beautiful styles

Design should be clean and websites should be clear and easy to navigate, because confusion leads to a lack of sales. I'm a communication strategist first and foremost.

You're too fun to have a boring brand! A powerful and magnetic brand should stand out from the rest.

Every design decision should have a clear "why" and purpose behind it.

Full of personality.

Clean, clear, and easy to navigate.

Intentional.

I pride myself on disappearing into your unique brand personality as much as possible, (an indecisive enneagram 7's dream!) but if I had to sum up my style it would be this:

My design philosophy...

"You did the most incredible job of helping me purge my heart and soul on to paper, creating the 'why' behind why I do hair."
