Nice to meet you!
Hi, I’m Charlotte Barrie, a content strategist, social media director, and brand storyteller with a decade of experience and a passion for a good creative challenge.
I'm a little obsessed with turning fuzzy ideas and stakeholder chaos into crisp, scroll-stopping creative. I help brands figure out who they are, what they stand for, and how to show up with clarity and confidence — from full rebrands and marketing campaigns to large-scale events, aligning strategy with content that looks great and actually moves the needle.
I live in New Hampshire with my husband and our three kitties, Squeaky, Stefka, and Sadie. When I’m not designing, I’m likely painting a wall in our fixer-upper, getting lost in a book, or stitching a quilt.
Let’s make something amazing together.
