a little about us
We’re a petite design studio based out of Falls Church, Virginia specializing in bringing design & technology to the fast growing community of entrepreneurs in our area since 2019.
Our design process is a lot like our approach to baked goods.
Jen is the baker and Karyn the decorator. Jen measures out the precise ingredients and double checks each step to make sure the cake is baked to perfection; a meticulous process much like her approach to making sure every technical detail is functioning and ensuring your business runs efficiently.
Karyn prefers to focus on the decorations with curated color pallets, frosting techniques, and a well executed theme to perfectly compliment any occasion. Marketing and art direction are approached in the same way, ensuring your message is executed with clarity and flare (because who doesn't love sprinkles?).
Together, you get exactly what you need to wow any audience.

The decorator. Karyn majored in Fine Arts, dabbled in interior design after graduating and eventually found herself in a corporate job doing graphic design. While the 9 to 5 gig didn’t suit her, she fell in love with the design work and collaborating with people in her community.
She has over 10 years of experience freelancing for everyone from small start-up companies to large corporations. Karyn's passion lies in the clear organization of ideas through visuals, making it not only memorable but easy for the audience to consume. It doesn’t get any better than that moment when a client's vision is actualized.
what people say
LISA, OWNER
Choosing to work with Link & Layer was without a doubt the best business decision I made. From the minute technical details to the brand aesthetic and the social media component, they helped me create a landing page, social media presence and online store that garnered hundreds of subscribers before I ever opened my doors. I was so thankful for their insights into issues I had never considered, and I would recommend them to any small business without hesitation.
